Stopped loosing weight

tammylgraham

Someone please tell me what I am doing wrong. For the past 8 weeks. MFP has been telling me that if I continue to eat and exercise the way I have been I should weigh around 150 lbs in 5 weeks. My Problem is that For the past 8 weeks I have been eating right and exercising everyday, and have not lost even a pound. Why is that? My goal is to be at 150. I have been stuck at 160 for 3 months cannot loose anymore weight, no matter how hard I try. What can I do to start to loose weight again.
Pease someone tell me

No one can tell you anything if your diary is private.

What does "eating right" mean for you? What does your exercise routine look like?

Are you logging your food? Are you carefully measuring portion sizes (a food scale would be ideal)? Are you eating back any of the earned exercise calories MFP adds? If so, what method are you using to estimate your burn (heart rate monitor, MFP estimates, gym machine estimates)?

Would you be comfortable opening your diary for us to take a look? You can do this by going to Settings at the top of the page. Then choose Diary Settings and Public and then Save Changes.

I have opened my account for all to see. I have been using MFP for a year, I know the tings that I can and cannot eat now. really frustrated.

You need to set your diary settings to public. It's still private. Do you weigh your food and use measuring cups for liquids?

you use multiple scales? did you track your BMI and such?

Your diary is still set to private and we still don't know anything about how much you're eating. If you're not tracking your calories then that is the first place to start, if only so that you'll have accurate numbers to work from. Right now, any advice we could give is just a shot in the dark.
