And it's terribly frustrating! The scale isn't moving and it's annoying me - especially because I've been better than ever with my diet and exercising more.
Is it possible because I'm not"eating" my calories burned? I almost never eat into them because it seems redundant to me - sometimes I'll eat into 100-150, but never all of them. Is that what's hurting me?

How long has it been?
Whats your BMI?0 -
About 2-3 weeks since nothing's changed.
BMI is33.80 -
Not saying that it's your case, but one of the most common causes for people to plateau with their weight is because they didn't eat their exercise calories back, their body didn't have enough fuel, and so it started hoarding calories. Starving yourself will change your metabolism and mess up your weight loss. Not sure if that's what's happening here, but it could be. Good luck!0

try mixing up the type of calories you eat (add more protein, subtract carbs etc. ) and switch up your number of cals by a few hundred daily. Also switch up your exercise routine. For more info look up "weightloss plateaus" on google. Hope I helped and good luck!0

That's what I was worried about...thanks for the response - I'm going to try to eat into them more and see if that helps at all.0

It could be a multitude of things. But seeing as you've lost 17 pounds, your body may just be getting used to what you're doing. Try switching up your schedule for working out, changing your meals you know.
Switch it up, give it a little break even.
I was plateau'd for over a MONTH! I know how frustrating it is... But I just took a break from counting every calorie, and the scale, haha. Then started again.
Weight loss is something your body wants to stop at all costs, and it sure can pull some stops!
go, girl [:0
