    If you have been doing the same routine since you started you may need to change up some try some exercises you havent done before. or new foods.

    I always work out first thing in the morning (even if it means getting up at 4am ) in order to work out on an empty stomach. Any time I hit a plateau i will change up a little and for a couple days maybe split my work out and do two a days one low intensity and one shorter higher intensity. I also change up on my intake by eating less for two or three days (always staying above 1000 calories. After a couple days of this i'm back on track. I am averaging about 5 pounds every two weeks so something is working, science or not!

    When I first started on MFP, I couldn't lose weight for the first couple of months. Started following this (the original version), and have been losing at a steady clip: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/654536-in-place-of-a-road-map-2-0-revised-7-2-12?hl=Road+map

    Try and rework your numbers, and see where it lands you.

    I know all about plateau's its frustrating but don't give up. intensify your work out- switch up your diet... and keep trucking. Dont worry about the scale-eventually it will catch up to you and fabulous you!!!!

    LOL!! "Take your toys and find your own sandbox!" ...Love it!!

    I have been on here for awhile and only have about 8 more pounds to my goal weight. Been on plateau for 4 weeks. So frustrating!
    Let's all hang in there together. Don't give up!!
