2 months out and I stopped losing!!

I am band to bypass. I lost really good the first 2-3 months then it slowed down to 5-8 pounds/month.
Remember your body has to catch up from losing so much. Give your body time to adjust!!!
Be patient. Follow your nutrition guidelines. I walked 2.5 miles right after surgery every day and I think this is what helped me lose at a steady pace.

It's only been a week since you stopped losing? And you lost 47lb since Sept? You are doing great. Your body is just taking a little break. When I was losing I had 2-3 week stalls. Perfectly normal. If it is too distressing there is a cure. Just walk over to the nearest window and toss out your scale. In this case what you don't know won't hurt you.
As long as you are doing the right things you will lose.

Weekly Iose between 2-5 lbs -- but on the weeks I only lose 2 lbs Ilose the most inches. Make sure you take a long range look - and remember your body has to catch up - that's alot of weight in a short time.
It is hard to not get attached to the scale - but the measuring tape is your friend as well.
