Open to suggestions on stalling

OhMsDiva

I thought I would throw this out there. I have constantly losing since January. For the past 2-3 weeks, I have not lost an ounce. I have not gained, but I have not lost. I have over 100 more pounds to lose. I am on 1800 calorie plan.
I do walk at home videos 6 days per week, normally about an hour each day. I weigh everything I eat. The only thing I do not measure are my daily veggies and the milk and cream (sugar free, or fat free) I add to my coffee daily. According to mfp I can eat 2000 calories and still lose 2 lbs per week. I do not eat my exercise calories back, so I know that I am in a deficit daily.
I know 2 weeks is not a pattern but I just thought I would see what suggestions are out there. I have not measured in a while, because I don't think I measure myself accurately.
I will open my diary, in the hopes of getting some constructive advice.
Thanks.

sometimes when you stall it helps to do something different, for instance do you tend to eat the same meals and do the same exercise? if so then I would change that. I also think it helps to have a blow out meal & eat what you like, I can lose weight after doing this, I did find an article on this the other day but they did emphasise it's one meal

Are you sure you're weighing everything with a food scale? I only ask because you have (generic) banana entry at least 2 days in a row with the same exact weight. My bananas are never the same weight, ever. Neither are my eggs. Some of your entries are pretty suspect. Like "Chicken - Chicken , 1 ounces " Is that raw, or cooked? Which part of the chicken? "Chicken - Breast, Raw" (which is an entry I use and has several confirmations, etc) at 1 oz is 31 calories, whereas yours is 28. I know that's only a minor difference, but these things can really add up.

Tighten up your logging, get rid of the generic entries, weigh everything. That's my advice. If after 4-6 weeks of no change, then take another look at things.

Have you refreshed your calories on MFP with your new weight? Your profile pic makes it look like you have lost a lot of weight and maybe you aren't at 2000cal anymore.

Have you recalculated your goals now that you have lost some weight? I have heard it happens automatically, but it never did for me. About every 10 lbs or so I have to redo them.

If you stall I suggest changing up your exercises and maybe what you eat a bit. Nothing drastic, but I had stalled losing for a month and was eating 1600 calories, so I added about 30 mins of exercise (for two weeks now) and am finally seeing a budge in the scale

Thanks for the suggestions. I do pretty much eat the same thing every day, so I am going to switch that up a bit. As far as the exercise, I can try something different for a while. With the weighing, I do not weigh a banana. I am assuming if I weigh it I would have to peel it and then weight it. So, no I do not weight bananas or eggs. I do not weigh any raw meat, but I do weigh it before I eat it. I do hear what you're saying though. So thank you
