Why has the weight loss slowed so much?

I was at a serious plateau myself, and tried the usual - ate more, exercised more, etc. I was stuck! What got me going again, believe it or not, was I stopped exercising for about 5 days (my child was sick and work was super busy). It seems like you're doing all the right things, so I'm sure you won't be at the same place for long.

I think this is about normal I've lost around that amount and mine has dropped to around about.5 a week also. I've got to so many plateaus I've lost count! It is disheartening but I'm keeping going I know Christmas will be a struggle but then I'll be renewed for the New Year. I usually change my exercise routine and that usually kick starts it again not by necessarily by doing more but by going swimming instead of going to the gym for the week. It's worth a try! Well done so far!

You should not feel that bad after I tell you that I m stuck for more than 10 months with the same weight . I have 10 lbs to lose and not matter what I do ( change diet, excercise and so forth) it does not go away. This is my second week consuming betweein 1100 and 1200 cals/daily. I workout five to six days per week for 1 hr. and I don't see any progress. Worse I have gained 2 lbs. :0( . I m going to stick to this diet for three weeks and see how it goes. Maybe my body it is adjusting. I have read/heard many theories concerning this issue. Some of them says I need to eat more like 1600 cals/daily, others say I need to increase my protein intake to 147 , there is anothe that says consume less protein (102gr). They also suggest more excersice : 1/2 hr. cardio (walking or jogging) empty stomach then 1 hr. strengh training in the afternoon plus 20 mins. walking/jogging before go to bed. There is this article I read that say that in order to lose fat you need to decrease cardio and do more weights to gain muscle, "more muscle less fat". Anyway, I think that each person responds different to any diet. I m doing the same diet and excercise program than my friend and she is losing weight already. I think this is b/c she has more muscle than me and her metabolism may be faster than mine. So don't get discourage and keep your program. Try another program and see how your body responds. Oxygen mag is a good tool. They have different programs and good information. Check carefully your daily food intake and see how much carbs , fat, protein and so forth you are consuming daily. Maybe you can change your carbs intake to less or more depending on how much are you consuming. I have some drastic diets and excercise program if you want to try it let me know. I can send you the information. Good luck and don't give ut!!!
