I had my RNY July 2002

I'm 5'7 my start weight was 303 size 24/26 yuk!! As of today I weigh 189 but a size 9/10 and if I'm really in the mood for torture I'll squeeze my tush into 8's..But how could this be, I understand about losing inches part but my scale hasnt moved in over a month..So I quess what I'm asking, is it possible for weight to be carried in the extra skin? and just how much can extra skin weigh? (hope that makes sense) I mean I can tell I have lost the weight but my mid section tells another story, I look like Joba the Hut without clothes.. I have a appointment with a plastic surgeon on the 23rd, not sure if thats a good thing since I'm 45 too 50 over weight..I read that it's better too waite until reaching the last 20 pounds..I'm sooo confused, I just really dont want too waste the Dr's time I quess
