Fighting to get under 200lbs! Its a fight!

Had gastric bypass on July 2017. So its been 8 months post op. I lost over 100lbs and I am weighing in at 209 lbs. Been a battle. Weight loss has slowed down and I feel my body is battling with me to stop me from getting under 200. My hunger somewhat increased but I just eat more fruit. I have cheated a few times with nut free gingerbread cookies but really nothing that will develop into a habit. I still at times cannot satisfy my hunger because sometimes I dont like any food or this strange habit of food being disgusting to me or after I eat it. My appetite changes daily. Some days still hard to get in food so I still turn to my premier protein. I have been working out regularly and I love it and hate it! My goal is to get to my maintenance weight about 128lbs by the end of the year. Skin surgery is a reality that I am already researching. I pray that working out helps improves it but dont look like it will solve it. I think about a sarah lee turkey on whole wheat but not ready for it. Im losing about 1-2 lbs a week or sometimes the scale will go up 1-3lbs then I drop 2-3 lbs days later. I weigh myself once a week. Sometimes twice just to see how my body reacts and just to learn how it operates. I gained 2.4lbs and then dropped it last week. I always lose or stay the same but after eating those nut free gingerbread cookies I retained water and it went up 2.4 lbs then dropped it. Had my gallbladder out December 2017 and life has been much better. No attacks! I am blessed to have had this surgery and to have Dr Joyce do my bypass & gallbladder. What a blessing. So 9 lbs to go to get to onederland. The battle goes on..
