:laugh: When I started MFP a few months ago, I set a realistic goal of losing 20 lbs. Great - almost there! (Even though, I really want to loose 40). I have been trudging along almost on 'MAINTENANCE MODE' for the past 2-3 weeks (loosing only 1 lb.) !!! :laugh: No wonder! I just re-adjusted to lose another 20 lbs., and my calorie intake went from 1380 - 1200 ......duh!!! Hopefully things will get moving again. :laugh:

    I had a very similar 'duh' moment last week! My daily life had changed quite a bit but I didn't change my "lifestyle" setting. Just couldn't figure out what the heck was wrong! Of course it finally hit me the day before I was going back to my more active lifestyle! Ugh!! Glad you found it and you're on your way back to losing!!
