    Weight has no bearing on the stall-your grid temp may have gotten you through the stall-how long has it been on??  As mountaindewbass mentions-usually in that range.  You can get another slow climb through the hi 180's to mid 190's but at 178 you should be well clear of the sustained stall. FWIW-
    Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win.  Life is too short for light/lite beer!  Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.
