Slowed Weight Loss

 So I'm just now hitting the 6 months post op and my weight loss has come to a screeching halt! I know that I'm not doing everything perfectly like I was the past few months but I've only lost about 8lbs in the past 6-8 weeks. I've been bouncing around 220-222 for the last 3 weeks. I know that I could be better about working out and not grazing throughout the day, but I just find I'm so stressed out from finals that its crazy difficult to stay on track! I'm just wonder for all of you that are 6 months or more out how much your weight loss slowed down around this point and what you did to adjust. I know this was a rather random post, but any input would be greatly appreciated! 

I am just over 8 months out and yeah the weight loss has slowed down. I had the realize band and was losing 3-4lbs a week to start out with and now its down to maybe 1-2lbs a week maybe. I'm not complaing though because this is what I'm supposed to be losing with the band any ways. My diet is still the same but I know I need to work out more than I do. Good luck and it could just be a stall that lasts a while and things will pick back up, just be patient. Also, congrats on how far you have come so far.

I feel ya! I've been stalled since November 2nd...until today!! It is really frustrating (and frightening) while it's happening no matter how many people say it's normal.

Looks like you have lost A LOT of weight in your first 6 months, that's amazing! Good job! Keep doin what you are doin....it's working!

I am still pretty new out so I haven't experienced it yet but I have read quite a few posts of others who have.  There seems to be something called the 5 day pouch test that apparently restarts things for you again.  I guess if you google it you can pull it up.  I don't know anymore than that though.

 hi  girl, if u are doing everything well, n following the rules u still lose more weight.
at 6 months it definidly start slowing down. ( everyone is diferent n there is people who still losing aeven after 2 years) n have to be really careful
i stoped losing around 10 months out. i was like WTF?. ( i knew that cuz when i turned 1 year out i had the same weigth) but i didn´t let that get in to my nerves n i keept dieting n excercising more n i lost 30 more lbs on my own. after the year out. now im trying to lose other 10-15- u weight loss stops when u want it to. don´t let ur honey mon phase decide for you u have the power of ur tool! its gonna get harder but its possible!
hugs

 Thanks guys! I guess I'm just pretty frustrated right now because I know I could be better about things but I'm not! I know I've pretty much lost all that I'm going to in the "honeymoon" phase of the weight loss and from here on out its going to be me having to work hard to loose the last 45 lbs. I've been hitting the gym about 4 times a week and I'm trying to up that to 5-6 but we'll see how that goes the next couple of weeks. Once again, thanks for all the support! 

if you ever need an excerise buddy in norman let me know :) i need to get motivated to get my butt back!
i go to steel on 12th :)

 So I guess  that, in line with everything else in life, as soon as I got frustrated enough to make a post about stalling and slowed weight loss I lost 2 lbs in 3 days! LoL So I guess it was just an annoying stall and hopefully I'll lose steadily for a while. Thanks for the support guys! 
As for working out in Norman, I work out a the OU workout place otherwise I would definitely say that we should workout together! We should try and set up some outdoor workouts in the spring when it isn't so dang cold! 

spring it is then! i am still getting used to this freezing cold and they darn wind oklahoma has here! <3
