TG, you've got some great advice here, I'd go with it Going off med's w/o your doctors approval, let alone knowledge is not a good idea. If you're feeling as good in a few months then perhaps it would be a good idea to suggest a change at that time?

In the meantime it is quite common to lose a significant amount during Induction and to have it slow down afterward. During Induction you lost excess water and some body fat. The body fat component is what you want to get rid of, and losing more than one or two lbs of body fat a week is a) not safe and b)highly unlikely if you're a woman. With only a few lbs to lose things will be slower for you as well. But have patience, slow losers are still losers. You might want to think in terms of percentages and not lbs, with 20 lbs to lose once you've lost 10 you're 50% of the way there.

Have you checked out the turtle club? You might benefit from hearing that there are others in the same boat.

HTH
