How long before the "honeymoon" is over?

How long does the honeymoon period last? I have been averaging about 3 pounds per week for a while now and I'm ecstatic for that. Approximately how long does it take before weight loss "normalizes"?

there are SO many factors that go into answering that question that it's almost impossible. :-) I stuck to the plan religiously and hit my goal weight by 10 months post op. At that point the weight loss definitely slowed down and I also came to the realization that I actually *could* eat the things I used to eat at that point without being sick. That scared the crap out of me and at that point I started going to therapy with an eating disorder therapist because I realized that I was still the same struggling person, just at a lower weight. Good luck to you!

Hi guys, I am 3 years post and have gain 50lbs of 90 lb weight loss. Every 5 pounds I would tell myself not another pound. The light bulb had finally gone off and I can't forget the sacrifice and hard work I put in 3 years ago...I am back on the wagon today with my detox and clean eating... and back on here for support... I will keep updating!
