"Ride out" the honeymoon phase?

[Evenkeel 5]

Did anyone reach a "normal" weight around six months, or at least during the "honeymoon" period after surgery? How much more did you lose, and how long did it take for your weight to stabilize? I hit my goal weight last Friday, which is also a "normal" weight for my height, and due to ongoing issues I'm concerned about becoming underweight before stabilizing. My surgeon just told me "we've never had anyone lose too much weight even though we rarely have people lose all of their excess weight, you're still in the honeymoon phase, your body will stabilize eventually." Okay, fine. Then I step on the scale this morning and find I've lost 3 pounds since Friday. I lost 3 pounds last week, too. Argh.

from everything I've heard & read, most people have a 10 to 20 lb rebound after they hit their lowest weight, so I probably wouldn't worry about it too much. I'm at a normal BMI as well, and I'm actually trying to lose another 10 lbs or so to give myself a cushion in case I rebound
