Hi Veronica. Take a deep breath and calm down just a bit. There doe**** a point in most of our journey's that this happens. Some of u**** it sooner than others. I hit this point you are at  when I was 8 months out. But here I am today with only 3 lbs to go until goal.. and yes it is toying with me.

What needs to happen now is you need to get back to the basics. You need to examine if you are following the wls rules or not..  We tend to gradually stray as time goes on, and that is where the real battle cmes in. We have to get back to the basics.
Are you drinking "clean" fluids and as much as you should? (not soda or coffe or sugary drinks)
Are you getting in your protein? (60 to 100 gr daily)
Are you making sure your meal and portion sizes are where they should be? (3/4 cup per meal from 9 to 12 months...1 cup per meal 12 months and after)
Are you being watchful of the carbs?

I am going to PM you. We will tackle this together.. ok?

I completely understand.. I just went through over a month of nothing!
This morning my scale finally went down 2 lbs! Yeah!!

I had gain 2 lbs (I think it was water weight) then that went bye bye which put me back to my "original" weight.  So I increased my excersice, add some more calories.. and finally the scale is down an additional 2 lbs. It might only be 2 but it seem like heaven to me.
