Something is wrong!! Not losing lbs!!

princesselle1

I've seen so many people on here with such amazing results with also so much weight lost!! I only have 28lbs to go and it's so difficult!! I jus can't take it off!!! I've been on here since August!! Only 9lbs lost! Some people have lost 40-50lbs! Why is it not working for me!! Just feel like giving up at times!

9 pounds seems like a nice, slow, healthy loss over that time frame. It's not a race, so as long as you are still losing weight, you are on the right track. I've lost 61 pounds, but that's in almost a year, and lately I have intentionally upped my calories and slowed my loss to a crawl because I have started lifting weights.

People who don't have as much to lose, lose it slower. 9lbs since August is great.

your diary's still private. as long as you're eating healthy, not starving yourself and exercising it'll come off. i haven't lost anything in well over a month but i'm not worried.

What is your average gross calorie intake?

How accurately are you measuring/weighing/logging your food

How much do you exercise and how active are you in the day?

Are you losing inches? That's more important anyway. What's your workout routine like? Your diary's still private. I doubt you should be worried, but we need more info to help.

You might also want to consider that you may have lost some inches, even if you don't see a difference on the scale. Did you take measurements when you started this journey that you could compare today's to?

I have gone into settings and changed it too everyone to see! Is that correct to take if off private?

We're all different. Somebody who is more overweight and has worse eating habits will lose weight more quickly when they make changes than somebody who has less weight to lose and already has pretty good habits.

You're doing better than me. I've only lost about 22 pounds over the last 4 years. But hey - it's a loss. I'll take it!

Your food diary is still not visible. You have to make it public if you want feedback on it.

At the start I lost 9 lbs in two months and lost 2inches! Now I've been the same since!

I had the same amount of weight to lose. Took me 8 months. Dont worry about it. EXERCISE every day.
