Well I had been in a stall for 6 weeks...no movement not even an ounce until today....thank goodness I don't weigh myself everyday because it could have been very discouraging.

Hope I don't go through another stall like that for awhile.cool

 

...and for some reason my ticker is not updating on my posts but is updated on my profile. Anyway 47 lbs down so far.

I went through that same experience - stalled for 5 - 6 weeks starting at the two week post op mark. I'm just a little over 6 months out and haven't had a stall like that since. I do find I just lose for about two weeks each month but that's all cycle related. You're well on your way now!
