I'm eight months out and have lost 84 pounds. BUT I notice that my weight loss is now slowing down drastically. Is this the part where I have to start working harder??!!

On the other hand, I just got back from a vacation and maintained, so I guess it ain't all bad!

Anyone else notice a slowing at this stage?

I slowed down on the pounds lost at about 7 months out, and, yes, this is where you have to start working harder. What I've noticed is that I lose more inches much faster now, even though the scale has slowed down. I've been shape-shifting for four months now and it's amazing to me to watch the muscle gains (from exercise) and the curves start really showing. I'm about 60 pounds from goal, but I'm loving the shape of the new me.

You're looking great Lissa. I guess I'll have to really get serious about the exercise. So far I've been about 50-60% committed.
