    You say you don't eat much junk food but what does your daily intake look like? No sweets or salt should be in your diet. Also, what do you drink? If only water great. But if you drink a lot of pop or juice that could be impacting your weigh loss. I make a rule to never drink my calories. Unless I have the odd glass of wine which I do on occasion.

    Good luck!

    You can drink some calories if you log them. Same with sweets. And it's not safe to tell someone to eat no salt.

    The human body needs salt to live. Salt helps control our fluid balance and controls the way our muscles and nerves work.

    Cutting out salt completely could be dangerous, and cutting out sweets is not necessary for weight loss.

    I guess I should clarify. I didn't mean completely but the poster.said she tried to limit junk food. I wasn't sure what her version of that is. As far as salt, I meant that it shouldn't be used in excess. I should of reworded that. Moral of the story really look at what you eat in a day.

    Thank you all for your answers!! They have really helped me. I started to use a food scale and have one dessert per week. I'll keep updated if I start to lose weight again :)
