Been there, done that!  You've probably heard the advice already, get off the scale, be patient etc. etc.  This too shall pass!

You know, someone mentioned stalls in relation to losing 10% of your body weight and sure enough when I looked at where I hit my more than 2 week stall, it was at almost the exact point that I had hit a 10% loss from my highest weight.

Hang in there!  During my stall, I still seemed to be shrinking as my clothes were getting too big etc.

Ive been on one for about two weeks now so I know how your feeling. Definitely remember the inches are still coming off. Don't get discouraged definitely try to keep that smile on your face and know it will definitely be better soon.

Oh my!  You guys are just starting out!

Wow, to have lost 70 pounds in less than 2 months!

My weight loss was slow the whole time through... but you will definitely keep losing during the first year.  I lost slowly for the first two years, but have a thyroid problem... so was happy with any loss.

Anyways, don't fret... you'll hit lots of little "stalls"... but they should be nothing to worry about during your first year!

THank you, although I am still on my stall, i have avoided the scale and have begun working out.

As far as my weight loss, i agree any is good. I did not lose the full 71 from surgery, 30 is from my pre-op diet. YAY
