    Hi. I am not sure why but after reaching a plateau eating 1200 calories I decided to up it to about 1400 per day. Strangely enough I started to drop again. Don't get discouraged. I figure it took me 20 years to gain it so I can't expect to loose it overnight. Sometimes I weigh myself before I go to sleep and when I get up I have lost 3 pounds or so.....Think Long term. I am 62 and this is the first time I have really been serious about this.Good Luck

    Only weigh yourself first thing in the morning, how about a low sodium v8 juice?..I am not crazy about it and can choke down 8 oz..also I am not a big veggie eater but parmesan roasted green beans are the bomb! Hmmmm..what else? You can lose on more than 1200..you really can! Up the protein. I find that if I do "white carbs" that I get hungrier..go whole grain. Best of luck to ya!

    Congrats on the 2lb weight loss!! And it sounds like your'e a happier camper now. :) I just want to add, maybe spend some time researching nutrition and what certain foods do for you. For me, I was at a weight loss plateau until I came across Mark Scisson's daily apple...while I don't follow his Primal Blueprint 100%, but by cutting out a lot of grains and replacing with higher protein and fat intake, I was able to bust through my plateau and target the last 10lbs. I have about 3lbs to go before I hit my goal weight...or I guess, my goal body composition is more accurate. Anyways, be patient and keep up the good work!! Everyone gave some pretty awesome advice here! :)

    If you want to try and get some veggies in, cook them INTO stuff! If you're making meat sauce for pasta, blend a load of veggies in with the tomatoes. You won't be able to taste them and they won't have any texture.
    Blend veggies into meatloaf, soups, ANYTHING.
    Do try to eat more. Your body needs fuel.
