Thanks. I am 13 mths out and I think I do not know what is normal for me yet. It has been so long since I was anywhere near a normal weight I have been sort of letting my body decide. I know they may sound crazy but I stay around the same calories ands stay at about the same weight. I guess if I gt too low, which I can not image I would worry. Thanks for your reply.

I noticed you are 4 yrs. Did you find it hard at first to decide where you wanted to be?

My surgeon's goal for me was 200 (80% of my excess weight) being a of a larger frame I knew normal BMI was unattainable. I also knew 200 wasn't good enough for me. I made it to 184, I hadn't been that small since High School. I bounced 5 pounds either side, was getting compliments left and right and decided I was there.

I had some regain related to complications with my VSG and had some revision done. I am back in the low 180's and normal BMI might just be attainable since I have significant absorption issues.

BTW my avatar was taken at my lowest weight. . .200 pounds lost
