A stall might not really be a stall at all.

Happy, you are the queen of understanding how your body and your mind work together.  If there is a Royal Court of VSG VETS, I want you at the party.  :)  You have great insight into your own processes, few people are where you are with all this.  I hope you stop sometimes and feel pride in your own ability to analyze your behaviors.  You deserve every bit of success that you bring to yourself.

I am not going anywhere.  I feel your love and support and it just makes me stronger and more determined to stick around and keep growing and helping.  I wish you lived closer, I would love to go shopping/clubbing/hanging out with you.

Thank you for the terrific info...and I'm getting a tape measure! Just starting walking 4 miles a day about 10 days ago....hoping for less inches and more weight loss.

Thank you so much for this post. I'm over a year out now, and I believe I've hit a maintenance type of phase in my journey. I'm within my normal bmi range, but just barely, and I feel good, so I've allowed certain things back into my life that I probably shouldn't. A glass of wine on the weekends, stuff like that. I need to re-evaluate whether this weight is good for me, or if I want to continue losing or not. Thanks so much for the reminder! =)

 Thanks Elina!  I'm 2 months out and still haven't really had a stall.  I don't always lose every day like I did the first month, but I never go more than two days without losing something.  I'm sure my time is coming!
