scale FINALLY moved again after 4 weeks,, down another 2 for a total of SIXTY TWO -- 62!!

Congratulations! I've been following your frustrations along with my own. My guess is we just keep plugging along and the weight has to decide to leave at some point!

Way to go! It is so hard to eat right and be patient when nothing is happening. I understand and am in the same boat. I figure it has to fall off at some point!

I think this is why the lap band is so helpful. I have the same problem where I won't lose for several weeks and then all of a sudden I will drop a couple of pounds and then nothing again for a couple of weeks. In the past I would have given up on the diet and quit. The lap band makes us control our eating.

You passed your half way point! WTG! I'm so happy for you! Just like riding a bike, down hill is so much easier.
