I had to smile when I saw your post.  I posted the very same thing yesterday.  Look at the post that says  "Very Concerned".  I hope the comments everyone was so gracious to leave me help you. I am sorry to hear that about the scale.  From the posts it sounds normal for this to happen to our bodies.  I'm only 4 weeks out and the same has happened to me.   Be sure to read the posts under my name.

Hey You!!! Don't worry!! apparently the loss slows down around this time just keep on doing what your doing!! youa re doing amazzing!! don't be discouraged there has been weeks that I stay the same and then suddenly one day I am down 3 pounds. so its all good.  Crystal your down 64 pounds in 4 months Hello!!! thats incrdible its something none of us could have said 4 months ago...LOL so relax it will come off. try to write down what your eating and how much of the protein your getting ina nd water and then examine it and if your not sure call Mary at the clinic. Good luck sweetie Hugz

Crystal, yes it's normal.  Start taking your measurements.  I bet your body is now catching up to the weight loss or the other way around.  The 4 month one seems to be the longest but one day you'll step on the scale and be down 5 more pounds and you'll say, hmmm where did that go to.  Relax, you're doing everything right.

CRYSTAL, CRYSTAL, CRYSTAL;     YOU ARE AS WE ALL SAY HITTING THE WALL. GOOD THING IS THIS IS TEMPORARY; AND YOUR BODY IS JUST CATCHING UP WITH ITSELF! YOU ARE STILL ON TARGET; WE HAVE ALL BEEN THERE! BAD THING IS THERE MAY BE MANY MORE OF THESE TIMES TO COME. SO IF YOU BEGIN FREAKING OUT ALREADY NOW; LATELY YOU'LL HAVE TO SIGN YOURSELF IN BESIDE ME IN THE BOOBIE HATCH. (ROTFLO)!~ CALM DOWN, YOU WILL BE FINE. I HAVE EVEN HAD NIGHTMARES ABOUT THINGS LIKE THIS. BUT THEN OTHER'S HAVE GIVEN ME SUPPORT AND REASSURANCE; SO HOPEFULLY I AM PASSING IT ON! BE PROUD OF HOW FAR YOU HAVE CAME ALREADY; GIVE YOURSELF A BREAK. KEEP ON KEEPING ON GIRL! HUGS, JUDY R
