    Try increasing your calories just by 200 r 300 sometimes that calorie boost gives your body the extra oompf to get outta that slump!

    INCREASE your calories. Yes, you heard me right, increase them by a 200-300 calories a day and see what happens.

    I am in a plateau also and after looking at my food diary I can see why. I went on vacation and to a wedding, etc. etc. I must have completely underestimated calories. Make sure log everything that you eat and drink.......and that means every...single...thing. I would up the intensity of your workouts and eat as clean as possible. I think I am about past mine by doing this very thing. Good luck!

    Also, eat back your exercise calories if you aren't already. :)

    thanks very much everybody ! I do log in all I eat , I m a maniac actually :)) ... I ll try to incease a little the intensity of my exercise and increase the calories too ... is true that I don't always et back all my calories and I m stressed too so my body might be in a sort of starvation way and retain every single thing because of stress and decrease intake in calories , I ll try and see what happens good luck everybody
