Has anyone on here lost all their weight ...

It does happen to most people. The thing to remember is that your body is very good at adapting to diet, and exercise. If you stall in your progress it is time for a change. Might need more calories, less calories, more intensity in exercise, or a different type of exercise, and most importantly you must have the right amount of sleep & recovery. Make a plan, execute, evaluate results, make changes, and repeat. It is a continuous process. Good luck

Yep. Hit goal weight of 65kg in 7 months. Then continued to lose it till I hit 60kg. Then stopped totally. Seriously can't get past 60kg at all. I guess this is as low as I go, but I'm losing size

and NOT hit a plateau in the process? I weigh myself every two weeks, so I am not talking about when the scale doesn't move for 3 days... I am thinking ...when the scale doesn't move for 3 months.

Is it possible that it can be avoided all together??

I lost 30 lbs, no plateau. So yes, it's possible. I just recommend not sticking with the low calorie diet. Those people seem to hit walls allot.

I never hit a real plateau, I quit losing when I quit trying but never actually hit a plateau, during that time I maintained but didn't lose. I was busy and let excuses get in the way, but when I got back to it I lost all the weight I needed to lose and at my goal. Now I fluctuate between 5 lbs.

I lost all my weight without ever reaching a plateau; my weight lost was slow but steady. I have been on maintenance for 2 and half years.

I didn't have much weight to lose in the first place so maybe that made a difference, I don't know. I was on a low calorie diet (definition of "low" to be determined), so the concept of hitting the wall doesn't apply to everybody.

There are tons and tons of people here who have lost all their weight. I am not there yet but I am on my way.

I was on a 6 week plateau eating less than 1200 cals a day and working out until I found MFP. From here I read the difference between dieting and starting a new lifestyle relationship with food.

Dieting to me is general suffering at very low calorie deficit and allowing for no snacks or junk food EVER.

Stating my new lifestyle relationship with food to me is about working out, eating better food choices, enjoying fast food and eating out as the opportunity comes up (just not as frequently as before) and not punishing myself when I go over my cals allotted for the day.

Before the changes, it took me more than a year to lose 22 lbs as i was yo-yoing. Since changing all of this, I have lost 11 lbs in a little less than 2 months. My hair has stopped falling out at the excessive rate it was.My nails have recovered and look nice again. I am not hangry about food or lack thereof. I feel better.

I am halfway to my goal and expect that I should have this in the bag by early 2014.

I never hit a plateau. I don't know why, or how, I managed to avoid it, but I was at one point almost 140 pounds down (more than I wanted to lose) and never went more than a week without a loss.

I was religious about logging, though, and exercised regularly, and tried to eat a moderate, but not extreme, deficit all the time. I didn't binge, but I did eat foods I liked in moderation and found healthier alternatives for other high-calorie foods.

When it comes down to it, though, you can only control the stuff I just said above. You can't control hormones or health issues that may arise and interfere with the number on the scale. Just do your best and be consistent.

My scale has stopped for almost two months. However, I lost size in different (odd) locations. Measure when in doubt.
