Wanting to be 140 before PS, I will get there.

WOW--you actually read my long, rambling and incoherent message. Please excuse the billion typos in all of my posts-- i'm not quite as illiterate as i come accross, it's just that a bunch of my laptop's keys are missing courtesy of my doggie (i forgot to close it and the puppy decided to venture into writing a novel of the century of something) and typing is not one of my strong point to begin with.

The reason psoted such a long response is that your initial post really sruck a cord with me--as i mentioned, i'm kind of going through the same thing being 2plus years post op there is no conceivable reason for it. for me, it's a great thing and i'm not concerned at all.

keep in mind however, that i'm only 5'4 and i'm currently 129lbs, up 7-10lbs from a year ago (and over the last couple of months alone i fluctuated btw. 130 and 148) and, while currently at a healthy weight am no where near being underweight. my dr.'s goal was for me to get to/stay somewhere under 144lbs (the highest "normal" bmi for my height) but my personal "ideal" dream wieght is 115, which i'm not anywhere near.

i noticed that you are 135lbs, 15lbs below your dr. goal of 150. if you fon't mind me asking, how tall are you? 135 sounds like a great number but whether or not you should be concerned about eating less than usual might depend in part on whether there is a risk for you of getting underweight. as i mentioned, i'm 5'4 ,and being on the shorter side getting below 135 would not be a health concern but, rather, something to enjoy. but if you happen to be much taller (say 5'10 or someting), being 135 for you would be very thin to begin with and, of course, you may want to make sure to remember to get in enough calories in order not to fall below what is a healthy weight range for you.

Hey Melissa!  Long time, no chat.  Good to see/hear from you.  Hope all is well!
