    Because as you lose weight the amount of calories you're allowed to eat reduces. Logging has to be much more precise as you get closer to your goal.

    6 lbs to go for my goal. My rate of loss was 2 lbs a week until I hit 7lbs. Then bam, hit a wall! I cut calories by a little. Then intensified ecercise. And increased my water.

    Finally started dropping again. Whew!
