    Congratulations on losing over 100 lbs!

    I suggest you open your Food and Exercise Diaries so we can maybe give good suggestions. Otherwise, go back to the beginning. What were you eating when you were losing the 100 lbs? Has that changed? What is your exercise level? Up or down from when you were losing? Have you talked with your surgeon or nutritionist? Do you attend a local support group?

    Are you drinking enough water?

    These are the first things that come to mind. If you are still solidly following your program, weighing and measuring, journalling, etc. and you have hit a plateau, well it sucks, but sometimes it happens. You might try changing things up. Change your exercise type. If you do the treadmill, try an elliptical or a bicycle. Try swimming (I can't believe the calorie burn I'm seeing people put up from swimming. As soon as I get some courage and drop a bit further I'm going to give it a try.)

    Best of luck in shaking off this plateau.
