It's ok. It's not advisable to lose weight suddenly. You have lost 25 in a year. That is a huge achievement!.
Make sure you steer clear of sweets and processed foods. Include higher portion of brown bread/rice, greens and fruits.Eat small portions often.
Also you should consider taking calcium and multivitamin supplements.
You will gain optimum BMI next year
