No need to fear you will lose much more. We all hit stalls at some point. I have hit several stall throughout my journey. I am 5 month out now and I am presently in a stall. My starting weight was 297 I am 213 and have been for the past 2 weeks. So just stay focused on the big goal you have set for yourself. Stick to your diet increase your Water and make sure you are getting in all of your Protein that is required. Change up your exercise routine. Sometimes we have to push harder to get up the hill. Just know you are doing great you are down 40lbs in a month and a half something that beyond beyond amazing. Keep up the good work.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
