It finally happened!!!
Thank you to all of you for your support and encouragement! I finally am back on the loosing side. I woke up this morning and weighed in and the scale finally moved for me!!! I'm down 82lbs now!!! Wooo Hoooo!!!! 
I went for my 6 month check up yesterday and all is well there. The doctor is very happy with my progress! I discussed with him my platue and his advise to me was to stop it.... Gee, thanks! Anyway, last week I went on an internet search for ways that I could help myself and I found that the biggest thing that I've been doing wrong is eating 6 small meals a day. We should only be eating 3 meals a day with no snacking!!!!! 
That's what we singed up for!! Somewhere along the line I was told to eat 6 small meals, but that must have only been for the first couple of months! No one told me I was supposed to stop! I also think that I was eating to many carbs. I also learned that a good way to curb any hunger that you think you might have is to "water load" your pouch. You have to be drinking water for a while before this will work, 15 minutes before you eat, drink a large volume of water as fast as you can, this will give you a full sensation (keeping you from eating too much) and keep you feeling full for up to 25 minutes. It works and helps me whenever I think I want to snack (since I got myself into that habbit). Try it, it might work for you too!!! Thanks again for all of your support and encouraging words!!!
