First I want to say congrats and that your doing great! Secondly I want to let you know that the more you have to loose the higher the numbers (most of the time) and that the closer to goal the slower the loss (check out my siggy). The fact that you don't have a "tremendous" amount of weight to loose plays a part as well. Remember you didn't gain this overnight. As long as the scale is moving in the right direction and I caution that statement by saying "over time" as the scale may bounce up/down a few times a long the way of your journey and you may also stall uuuggghhh I hated that part but if you keep doing the right things you will loose ALL your weight.

I responded to your second post first, and then came back to read this.
You are a revision, revisions lose slower- doesn't mean they don't lose. Stalls happen too. One week after surgery I went into a three and a half week stall. Stinks.
Starvation mode is a myth. Search it out.
Keep moving forward and adjusting as needed. It will happen.
