I have some advice: what is your daily calorie alottment? let's say its 1500, try breaking it up. Do 1400 one day, then 1800, then 1300, etc. Average out the week to 1500cals a day, but purposely eat a different amount each day. It may trick your body into weight loss. Something else you could try is taking a couple days off. Don't go nuts or anything, but don't count. Or go out for a nice dinner and don't look at the calorie count. The extra calories may jump start your weight-loss. good luck, you mostly just have to hang in there, it'll happen
