Yup! We know it is going to happen! We expect it to happen! But it is still a bummer when it does! I never had one of those really long stalls some people get but there were plenty of weeks when the numbers didnt change!

Between a week and six months. In fact, most people say it isn't a stall until three weeks.

CG is right. I've been at my current weight since January and have gone down as much as two clothing sizes. Somehow the body does get smaller even if it doesn't show on the scale. In fact, the only reason I weigh myself at all is because I'm on steroids and need to watch for Water weight gain as that can indicate kidney issues.

Nothing sweeter than a non scale victory!!

Yes it can be frustrating, but instead of looking at the scale, try looking at your body instead. Getting slimmer in places ? Feeling better ? Clothes getting looser ? The scale is NOT always your friend, sometimes you need to look at other ways to see how well you're doing. Congratulations on your hard work so far ! Keep it up !!!
