Plateau.

I'm past the point of being disappointed, and I'm slowly slipping away from this. I even cheated and just logged quick calories for yesterday instead of actually seeing what I ate. I know it isn't all about the scale, but that is what I ALWAYS focus on, and when it hasn't moved in over a month, I'm going crazy. My motivation is almost non existent. The only exercise I have been doing is walking/jogging. I feel like why bother if it isn't helping anyways? Ok, I'm done being a baby. :(

    You logging everything? how is your deficit maybe zig zag it some by going up or down for a couple of days, don't give up cause you will lose the 32lbs of progress that you made! Look at some old pictures as motivation. Maybe start a C25K program to give your walking/jogging a purpose if you are getting bored by it.

    It's ok, it happens and is part of the process.

    Find a new way of motivation and change up your diet/routine to kick start your weight loss again. Once you start seeing the scale move in the right direction again it will be easier.

    I'm no expert but, to me when you've been on a Plateau for awhile...it's time for change. Your body gets used to the daily routine. Step it up, change the food, something to shock your body a little...try zumba maybe
