Plateau...been here 3 times

rickyyean

just started losing weight 4 weeks ago and dropped from 188 to 177. I've been here 3 other times before and the lowest mark I've gotten to is 174 but it all plateaus there. I'm determined to break through it this time. My routine is calorie restriction + cheat day. Have incorporated weight training and cut back cardio, which is new. Anyone in the same boat? Tips or motivation to get me past 174 and feeling renewed?

Not a plateau at 4 weeks...keep at it

I've hit a stop after 7 weeks. For the first four weeks, I lost only 2 or 3 pounds, then 5 pounds dropped off in 2 weeks and now nothing again. I'm consistently under my calorie goal, with only a few small over indulgences. But nothing major. It's doing my head in.

BTW it's 174 I'm stuck at as well !! Weird.

Yeah I've been here three times. It has only been 4 weeks but I can feel it getting stuck. I'll probably stick with my current plan for another 4 weeks and really use this board to not lose motivation. After that, I might have to change up the plan as my body might just be getting adjusted.

I've been here a few times before. The last time I dropped from 195 to 184. That was last year. Now I'm at 209lbs and going steady. Feel free to add me.
