  • Donna. I know this has been two years since you posted about your long plateau. Can you and anyone else who posted on here give an update? I am on week 5 of a plateau and similar story. Curious if/when/how things resolved, as we look back from feb/march 2011 until now.. Thanks

    Traditionally, MFP doesn't recommend going below 1200 calories so I use this site along with thedailyplate.com. It automatically adjusts your caloric intake as you lose weight... Plateaus are tricky so what has worked for me in the past is "tricking" my body back! LOL. You may need to increase your calories to "restart" the weightloss process or really kick up your workouts. The same 30 minute routine doesn't have the same effect 3 months later per se... It's definitely a frustrating time but you will definitely overcome it with with a few tweaks. Good luck ;)
