10 Month Post opp and stuck, (pics)

I am exactly 10 months post op and I think I am stuck. It has been a couple of weeks and nothing. I know, many people go through that but I really haven't experienced it. I have always been continuous. I think this might be the end of the significant weight loss and now just the journey through the toning and shaping up. Oh well, I am happy. I have included some post op and now photos. Enjoy.

Thank you all for the wonderful comments. I know I will start losing again. I do exercise at least 3 times a week, usually more. I have been going to the gym for over 2 years and have lost a total of 94 lbs since Jan of '04. (I can remember because that is when I met my husband and decided I needed to shed some pounds because I didn't want to die and have him find some other woman) I began this journey at over 250 lbs so I can keep going as long as it takes. I love to exercise and I do feel as though I am shrinking in sizes even if it isn't on the scale. I love being able to go and actually take a size 12 in the dressing room with me. Love it! Absolutely love it! Of course now, like most people who have dropped this much weight I would love to have some cosmetic surgery done. I am pretty sure that 75% of the weight I lost came from my breast because there is nothing left but skin and nipple. It would be nice to have the rearranged and full for once. The hardest thing for me to lose has been my thighs. They were huge and I have lost about 6 inches in each one but I still feel like they swing when I walk so I wouldn't mind having them reduced and having a tummy tuck as well. Due to a c-section with my son over 10 years ago I still have that little roll around my belly. I have gotten rid of most of that but that last one isn't going anywhere. I wear a girdle every day. It goes up to my breast and down to my knees. That allows me to look more shaplier and I like that. No jiggle when I walk.

Anyhow, thanks for all the wonderful comments. Good luck to everyone.

Good God! You are gorgeous! You look so healthy in your most recent pic. And all that in 10 months!?!? WOW! You may be stuck at this weight for awhile, but if you keep exercising and sticking to good food choices, your body will have no choice but to go the way you want it to go. Don't give up, I know that a lot of us here would be happy to be the size you are now, but none of that really matters if you're not happy. Keep up the good work, and I'm sure that you'll get there in no time!

The Bandster boys chime in....B-E-A-U-T-I-ful! Your have a knockout smile and you can see a dramatic difference in those pictures. Nothing to be down about, are you kidding? Keep up the great work and the weight will keep shedding off.

God Bless you!

You look great! It's so funny.... When my weight loss slowed down (oh, ok, stopped for a few months) that's when I got the most compliments -- I think the shapes & inches were rearranging themselves. Maybe you'll be pleasantly surprised during your plateau like I was !!! I think inches make a bigger difference than pounds anyways. You look absolutely gorgeous, congratulations and keep on losing!

WOW, don't you look amazing! I had about an 8 week plateau recently and while they are frustrating, they do eventually end. Keep up the great work!
