I can't get the scale to move - it's been 5 months now!!!

I'm still not getting the scale to move!! I had my surgery June 2004 - I've lost 80 pounds. From 270 to 190. The scale hasn't moved from 190 since January. It bounces from 185 to 190. I've upped my water, upped my protein, upped excercise. What else can I do? Please help!

Here's my personal experience... I was in the same boat, except I only gained 2.5 pounds once (freaked me out!!!) and since I lost them again, I've stayed at the same weight for over a month. I know MY main issue was letting the carbs get back into my diet. I started logging what I ate in http://www.fitday.com and HOLY MOLLY! Without really realizing it, my carb intake was much too high. I'm not talking just the goldfish crackers (my weakness ) but fruits and other foods (like Special K!) which may be healthier, but have high sugar and/or carb content nonetheless... N-E-way... Long story short, I decided to jumpstart my weight loss and seriously get back to basics, so I'm on phase 1 of the South Beach "diet". I don't want to say anything officially yet, because I weigh in on Mondays, but I expect Monday to FINALLY be able to say I'm in the century club! The South Beach "diet" plan is basically doing what they told us we needed to do when we had our surgery. Stay away from the sugars, eat the right carbs in small amounts... If any of you are interested, here's a good site with info: http://www.southbeach-diet-plan.com/ It's definitely getting me right back in track with the correct eating habits, which I needed desperately. Now, I reeeeeaaaaallllly must get that exercise in! Whew!!! Angie 280/182.5/140 http://www.geocities.com/tiger_angie http://www.obesityhelp.com/morbidobesity/profile.phtml?N=L1098876573

I just want you to know you are not alone. I lost 121 pounds by the end of 2004 from 409 to 188 and have been stuck there for 5 months now. It's gotta bewhat I'm taking in my job has changed at work and now I am at my desk all day bored out of my mind and all I want to do is put things in my mouth. I have to make a major change. I will be glad when I can go back to my old routine at work when I am up and running around busy. It's good to know that I am not the only one. I was starting to think I really was a loser.(and not in the good way)
