Well, firstly, its weight gone, and its stayed off so congratulations for that.
What do you eat? And what exercise do you do?
If you're still having trouble controlling what and how much you eat, do you need more fill? It really does become much easier with good restriction. You've no doubt been given dietary guidelines, but if not, there's any number of ways to skin a cat. Round here, most people do a highish protein/lower carb type diet, in australia, we're told to eat from all food groups, according to the food pyramid, so personally, I eat plenty of wholegrain carbs. You just need to settle on a healthy, moderate, lowish calorie diet.
And you really probably need about 40 minutes of cardio (walking, elliptical, bike, swimming, running) about four or five times a week at the very minimum, and if you can add some strength training on top of that, so much the better.
It really does take quite a bit of exercise and work for most people to keep the pounds coming off at a good rate. But we ALL need our fills to make it happen.
My first port of call would be your doc if you feel your restriction is not optimum.
Good luck!
