This question, and for how long did you try those things before switching to something new or giving up?4 -
Do you use a food scale, weighing everything you eat, and log it all, no skipping, cheating, or forgetting?
If not, start there.7 -
Ditto the how long have you been trying and are you using a food scale? If this is your last 5 lbs to lose, you might only lose .25-.5 a week. You’ll probably have weeks where you don’t lose at all. And you are going to need to be SUPER accurate regarding your calories and activity (assuming these are indeed the last 5 lbs to get to goal).3

Why 5lbs? What is your overall goal? 5lbs seems very specific.0
