Ok I have lost a total of 108 lbs since April/2011 when I had my sugery...I know that is alot to lose in a short period of time but what I need to know is when did the weight loss slow down for you??  My scales have stopped I am guessing it is a stall for now. 

Any help is good help.... I feel like I am going to go insane cause the scale won't move!

I think it varies from person to person.  Some have their first stall at 3 weeks post-op;  I had mine at 7 weeks, and am just coming out of it now.

If you've gone this long without a stall - .  You may be in it for a few weeks, so don't sweat it.  It will start to move again when it's good and ready.

I'm going to tell you to put your scales away, or in the car some place that isn't conveinent.

Ok and when I get to where you are please tell me the same thing.

I've hadlots of stalls but my loss has slowed down, not losing as much weekly.  I it to happen earlier.  Now I'm sure I'lll have to work harder at losing.

Hi Michelle..
It is different for everyone..  I know that every time my scale didn't move for a week I thought I was done.. People would tell me... "You're not done yet"  but I'd worry.. AND.....  I'm still dropping..
I had surgery a year earlier than you..  I know it really means nothing to compare your loss with others.. but I was always interested.. so...following is what I experienced.
