    I need help getting over a plateau. I am 5'2. I weigh 126 lbs currently. I stick to a 1200 calorie diet. I have not been able to break under the 126 in a month. :// I have a feeling you are going to suggest I up my calories, and I have tried this in the past... the outcome-a gain!

    I want to reach 110 lbs by summer. Any advice or suggestions would help greatly/ Thank you.

    I do cycling (spin class) at the gym 4 times a week, strength training each evening prior to bed. I have been attempting the 30-day shred, but sometimes can't complete the whole 20-minutes... I stay on my feet all day at my job, so I'm not sure what else I should be doing.

    Hey, I have a question. I'm getting really demotivated as I'm bumbling around the 160lbs but not managing to get below that. I'll admit I'm not the strictest with myself, but I've come to realise I'm a 'small steps' person; I can cut down but if I cut out altogether then when it gets to the weekend then I binge eat. Anyway, I've got from 173lb down to 164lb now but really struggling to hit 160lb or under.

    I do 30DS 5 days a week (usually mon-fri) as I have a strict routine then - I've only been doing this routine for 2 weeks though, before then I wasn't as strict. I eat small for breakfast (around 250 cals), smaller for lunch (200 or less) but I'm a big dinner person (up to 700 cals) my daily limit is 1410 for a 1lb a week loss. I'm also 5.7".

    Basically, why is it so hard to get below 160lbs?? Do I need to step-up the exercise? Less carbs? Stricter weekends? It's my birthday in 2 weeks and I wanted to hit 160lbs for then but I don't think I'm going to if I haven't lost any weight this week :ohwell:

    Thanking you!
