Post ops - How long has your longest plateau lasted?

What helped to break the plateau? How did you document how long it lasted? I weigh and chart my weight daily, and have been on a plateau since mid-May. I am 9 months out after lap RNY. I have tried the usual - upping water intake, increasing protein and changing/increasing aerobic exercise. I can't fit any more into my day without giving up that 6-8 hours of unconsciousness I am lucky to get every night. Do they sometimes just break on their own? I was a lightweight to begin with and lost 60lbs, but would like to lose about 40 more lbs. Next step is to have my resting metabolic rate assessed at a nearby hospital!
