maintenance?

I had a VSG on 7/29/13 and was 310 lbs pre-op. It's now the six month mark and I've lost 135 lbs and feel comfortable at 175 lbs. My goal weight was 190, but I've now passed that by 15 lbs. I was curious to learn how some of you transitioned from being focused on the weight-loss to maintaining your goal weight (?)....

How many calories are you consuming at the 6 month mark?

What's your regular exercise routine?

Do you still try to avoid carbs whenever possible?

Any feedback would be appreciated!

I've been at goal almost two years. I transitioned by adding more healthy fats and more treats. I do t avoid carbs, but I do focus on Protein first, then some mar starchy veggies, then a complex carb, like whole wheat bread, sweet potato, oats, or barley.

It's a fine line on the treats. I weigh daily and slack off if I'm over my bounce range. I do exercise, but it's more to feel healthy than weight control.
