Totally random story yall may appreciate.
A month ago I bought 2 pairs of skinny jeans from Old Navy, size 22 and size 20. I decided 20 were too tight and returned them. I went to put on the 22 today for work and they were kinda tight too but I thought they would loosen a bit once I moved around. They did and I started thinking I looked pretty good!
I got to work and went to the bathroom and I realized that these are the size 20 and I returned the wrong pair and the 20s fit and looked good!
Little victories help me through the day!

Awesome victory Lisabelle07! That must have felt sooooo Awesome!!
@gustavo52874, You need to wear something that fits you now for that picture! You've lost a lot of weight so far so you have to show it off by wearing something you are not swimming in because it will hide some of your accomplishement. Time to buy a new red shirt! Still waiting to see that new pic with Morgan! Make sure you save your jeans though! When you reach your goal, I love the pics of people standing in their old jeans with room left for an extra person! Mine are the only thing in my closet I haven't given away. That, and a few outfits I held on to from skinnier days that I hope to fit into once again (and then get rid of because they are so out of date!!)

I stalled in weight but I notice I also got smaller at the same time. I'd check my measurements if I were you.

Since when is losing 79 pounds and keeping it off failure?
If you aren't losing at the pace you'd like, but you are active and adhering to a healthy diet, you need to accept that you might just be a slower loser. I thought I'd be down 107 pounds by nine months out...it took me 17 months to hit goal.
If you're not already, you need to track your food. Without changing your current diet, track every single bite you put in your mouth for three days. Then, shave 20% off your calories and return to a healthier balance (I do 40% Protein, 30% carbs and 30% fat) and if you don't lose weight after two weeks of doing that, come back and ask for help again.
Odds are good you've simply fallen into denial or gotten complacent about your diet. It's normal - I think a lot of us that take longer to lose the weight do this at some point. Pick it up and get back to basics. If you've dropped your Protein shake, reconsider. It's a great way to up your protein totals for the day without adding a ton of extra calories. I always aim for 90+ grams a day. And be sure you're drinking Water between meals and not drinking a lot of excess calories (or diet soda, which isn't good for anyone) without realizing it.
Diet alone should help you jump start, but adding in new exercise will certainly help. Consider finding something you can look forward to doing as a daily physical activity. I won't lie, I have trouble with this myself.
There is no reason you can't reach your goal weight in your second year post op. Your sleeve is as big as it's getting. It's the same tool it was a year ago - so if you buckle down and get real with yourself you can reach your goal this year.

In response to "I don't know why the stall, but it sucks. I'm getting very depressed"
Your body is adjusting. I've heard (and now experienced) that when you stall, your body is doing other things. Many sleevers have taken measurements of themselves durin their stall, and even though they aren't losing pounds, they are still having 'non scale victories'
Trust me, as long as you keep doing what you are supposed to, your body will eventually get back on the program with you.
