Starvation?
I was in your shoes...I'm a "slow loser" I think it just takes some time for your body to adjust. Are you eating every 3-4 hrs? That let's your body to know more food is coming & stimulates your metabolism. I have only lost 27 lbs & was sleeved 12/17... My weight loss is just now starting to return! It will come off....with the small amounts we are eating it has too! Good luck!
