only half as much

ok, I have only lost 12 lbs this month and 25 last month.. I have only been eating this past week. prior to that I was still having a lot of trouble. its this normal? Dr says I am right where I should be, but only half as much this month. as a matter of fact I only lost 1 lb this week, but lost 6 last week. I don't want to start with the slow down yet. has this happened to anyone else?
thanks

Don't get too disheartened, Mendy.  You have probably hit a plateau.  We all do that.  But it sounds to me as though you are doing great.  Just keep it up.

thank you, I appreicate all your kind words. they help me a lot...

Yes--I'm in a plateu now.  same scale weight for two weeks--eating the right stuff and working my buns off at the gym.  But if you keep on keeping on this too shall pass.
