Weight plateau early on?

I've been committed to MFP for the past 4 weeks and have lost 9 pounds (yay!) but my weight loss seems to have plateaued... Any thoughts about how to kickstart it again? Can't do much better with my eating at this point, but any great workouts I should try? Recommendations welcome!!

I fail to see where you have plateaus. Nine pounds in 4 weeks is good.
But how many calories are you eating? Do you exercise, if so what do you do?0 -
it's not a plateau.
keep working hard.0 -
#1 advice do not sweat plateaus its just a fact of doing a weight loss plan sometimes they last a couple days or a couple weeks.
Water, Water, Water. Also mix up your exercises and times, duration and intensity.
I am also a firm believer that you should break your diet every 10 days or so sometimes we starve the body without knowing it and a high carb meal helps losing weight in the long term.
Body confusion is key
Everyone is different but this works for me.

I often go for two weeks or more without seeing a loss. Then I get on the scale and suddenly I'm down three or four pounds. I wouldn't consider myself in a plateau unless I'd gone for at least a month without seeing a change. I've also noticed that even if I am not losing pounds, I am still losing inches. Take your measurements and see where you are with that. I would ride it out for a while before getting worried.0

You've lost 9 lbs in 4 weeks; this is not a plateau. (Congrats by the way). Weight loss is not linear and you will likely not see a loss on the scales every single week. There may be weeks when you see a gain, even when you think you've done everything "right". For me, I've found that I can stay the same for a couple of weeks in a row (with small daily fluctuations) and then suddenly drop a few pounds overnight. Your weight fluctuates anyway for lots of reasons - water retention from hormone fluctuations, more carbs than usual, more sodium than usual, a new exercise programme, or in crease in exercise intensity etc. Don't start to worry until you've had several weeks with not loss, no change in measurements, and conditions have been consistent. Otherwise, just be patient and keep at it!0

I think just being consistent with what you're already doing ~ 9lbs in 4 weeks is amazing!!!

THE SAME ONE YOU JUST DID, BUT WAY HARDER!0

You're averaging over 2lbs/week, which is A LOT of weight loss, especially considering you're not that big to begin with.
You have to realize two things: one, what plateau? 9 pounds in 4 weeks is great.
Two, as you get smaller the weight comes off slower. When you only have around 20 pounds to go, I'd seriously doubt that you'll see more than a pound loss in a week (possibly just a half pound). And that's ON AVERAGE. If you lose a pound one week, you might lose nothing the next. You have to look at the pattern over time
Basically, if you're happy with your routine now, keep at it. Good luck!0 -
Not a plateau! 9 lbs in 4 weeks is awesome. Remember that weight loss is rarely linear so you may not see a loss every week. You may even gain some weeks, despite (literally) working your butt off. Stick to it. Keep working hard. If you look at weight loss over time it should be a downward trend in general if you're doing it right 0

9 lbs in 4 weeks is great. If you're doing at least 20 minutes of intense exercise every day, your biggest advantage will come from the kitchen, not more exercise (although more exercise is good, to a point at least). If you haven't already, I recommend cutting ALL processed foods, dairy, added oils (a little olive or canola won't hurt), and salt from your diet. These items cause inflammation and keep the fat on.0

Why cut dairy? Unless she has an allergy, cutting dairy will do nothing to affect weight loss pending calories are equivalent.0 -
Switch up the exercise routine!
Try a new dvd, work out class, something new. That's how I broke my plateau in 2009.0 -

Girlie, I've been 3 months without a pound or inch lost. Congrats on the 9 pounds in 4 weeks! Over 2 pounds a week! Give it time.Drink a lot of water. Cardio is good for fat loss. Keep up the hard work!0 -

And oils can be a pretty healthy fat - good for your skin, hair, so forth. I think cutting anything in excess without reason is kind of silly, myself. I've lost weight (and inches around my midsection) eating all of those things in moderation0 -
Keep doing what your doing weight loss isn't consistent and some weeks you may not see the scale budge but find other ways to track your success (measuring, clothes fitting better, running further that week, more pushups this week than last week, you get the idea). 0

I'm sharing information which I know from personal experience helps. There is also a lot of science that says processed foods are not health promoting. I'm always surprised when people are defensive about the suggestion that one would be better off eating primarily whole foods. If one makes 90% of their calories come from whole plant foods (vegetables, fruits, beans, nuts, and seeds) they will without a doubt lose weight, rather quickly I might add, and become healthier. I personally lost 40 lbs in 10 weeks eating this way, never had to count calories, and never felt hungry. My digestive issues also disappeared (i.e. heartburn, constipation, etc...)
Of course there are other ways to lose weight that work. My personal experience with moderation is that I'm constantly hungry and the weight loss is relatively slow. Obviously counting calories works, I just don't believe it is the easiest or the healthiest way to eat.
If one is really interested in losing weight quickly and improving their health, I highly recommend looking into "Eat to Live".
I understand everyone has their opinion and experiences. I'm just sharing what worked very well for me.0 -

Why would you assume we are defensive? I was asking a simple question. And in my case, I believe more in science and studies done by reputable research facilities (NIH, etc..) as opposed to diet books (although, I did read the Paleo book as my wife has to be gluten free).
You probably had some allergy to dairy which is why you cleared up your intolerance. I am glad it worked for you but it is not a requirement for everyone. Now I do suggest to people that if calorie counting is failing, then they need to take it to the next step in cutting food groups to see if there is an undiagnosed intolerance.0 -
I was talking to a friend of mine about this today and she had an excellent explanation:
Fat is like dirt and your body is like your house. When cleaning your house (AKA losing weight) you'll find that some dirt is light and loose and comes off easily. Some dirt needs a bit of scrubbing and then you get those patches of grime that's been clogging on for years that need a lot of soaking & scrubbing (rinse & repeat) to get rid of it.
When you think you're on a plateau, your body is "soaking the grime" to get it off. Don't give up & keep focused. It will come off eventually and then it'll be gone for good!
Keep it up, you're doing great!

Awesome! Here are some scientific papers to check out on the negative effects of dairy and processed foods.

How about you try to post information from the studies instead of the references from the book.0
