I can't give you any advice since I am just 3 days post-op, but I have heard from friends that there are several plateaus during the first year. The body is amazingly resilient and will start adjusting to your new normal in terms of calorie intake. Keep up with your exercise and healthy eating, and it will start coming off again.

You've lost a significant amount of weight so far, most likely more then you could have on any diet program available. Please be patient with yourself. You've put your body through a lot, and it needs to adjust occasionally. Take one day at a time, and like the other poster said, if the numbers are going to stress you out, Put the Scale Away. I've found oddly enough that although the numbers don't always go down, inches do.

i was in a stall at about week 3 for a couple of weeks...your body thinks you are starving it...it is common(so i read on these boards) and the scale did start moving in about 2 weeks...dont fret, cuz you have already lost quite a bit...be patient, good things WILL COME YOUR WAY!!!
