6 month blues?

I will be 6 months out next month and am worried about the end of the honeymoon period... for those of you over 6 months out what was your experience?? I have been loosing about 8lbs a month but this month is almost over and I am down only 3lbs so far. Of course I am thankful for every pound lost but I am wondering if I am going to slow to a snails pace or am I go thru a slow phase right now (semi-plateau if thats possible!!). I am 48lbs from my goal weight and would love make that by 9/10 months post-op.

I am almost at 9 months RNY and I have noticed a dramatic slow down with my weight loss. I lost approx 85lbs at this point. I'd like to lose 20-30 more to meet a personal goal of 100lbs lost. However, I'm not that motivated anymore. Everything I've read said the weight loss takes place over 18 months, so if you look at it that way, it will happen, just not as quickly. I do confess, I'm not as diligent as I was post op, I have some habits i'm working on. I do get all my water though. I also found around 6 months my energy finall picked up and I could eat some more. Good Luck, JEnnifer
