My RO says he wants me to keep the weight for two weeks after treatment, then "I don't care how much you lose". That's fine by me, as one side benefit will be attaining the appropriate weight for my height, if only while I can't taste anything. I expect I will easily slip to 170-175 just eating as I wish, but will continue to augment my diet while in healing mode (i.e. the two weeks after).
