so far i have lost about 20 pounds and still have a ways to go. I weighed myself this morning after 2 weeks and only lost 0.6 lbs! very frustrating. does anyone have any 'plateau' remedies to get my weight loss kick started again?

Thanks!

    Are you doing resistance training? If not, I'd recommend it to increase lean muscle and increase your metabolism.

    Remember it's not about the scale weight but about body fat %...

    If you can loose 1# of fat and gain 1# of muscle, that's a huge difference in overall mass.

    Switching up your exercise can really be a boon. For me it was as simple as choosing another exercise machine. (Elliptical over treadmill.) I also found that after those first 20 pounds I got a little lazier in my food choices. Buckling down on that, drinking more water, and just being patient was what finally worked.

    Good luck. Plateau's are major frustrating.
