Help :(

Congrats on the great loss!!!!
Weight loss slows after a while and that's completely natural and to be expected. Make sure to adjust your caloric intake as you get smaller and set your weightloss goal per week lower.
Don't give up-you're doing very well!

perhaps your not losing because your putting on muscle..not bulking but turning fat into muscle. has you body comp changed?

It's not that you're exercising too much, you're doing great. But weight loss isn't linear. You have good weeks and bad, and the closer you get to your goal the slower it goes.

Try mixing things up. Try a new workout or a change in your diet. But even if you don't you shouldn't worry. You're doing just fine.

^This.

There's a few things you can do:
Just take a break.. for a week and start again.
Drink your weight in Water for a few days.

Actually you can exercise too much. Make sure you're resting enough. If your body doesn't rest enough then your muscles don't have any recovery. Also you can put on muscle when swimming. If you have a place that measures body fat near you, you should give it a try. I once lost 1 lb in about 6 weeks but dropped 8% body fat.

no. no. no.

Can you do too much exercise. I have been doing this for about a month and half now and lost 21lb. I swim every day for around 45 minutes but I have noticed the weight loss has been a lot slower the past couple of weeks. My friend said im exercising too much. Is this true? Im so confused. should i swim less

Thanks in advance xx

21 pounds in six weeks is an incredibly huge amount of weight and I wonder how healthy you went about losing it.

Yes, you can probably execise too much. However, 45 minutes a day of swimming is nowhere near too much.

I think your issues may be related more to diet than to exercise. It looks like you're pretty consistently under your daily protein goals. If you're extremely active, it's really important to make sure you get enough protein. You might think about switching out the cereal you're having for breakfast for eggs or yogurt to help you get more protein early in the day. Also, you might want to try to eat more Greek yogurt, which is higher in protein than other yogurt.

You eat a lot of packaged foods. They have a lot of sodium in them, which can make it seem like you've stopped losing weight when really you're retaining water. Some of your entries for packaged can't possibly be correct (salted crisps have 0 sodium? probably not), so make sure you're double checking the nutrition info on the package vs. what the MFP database says.

The closer you get to your goal, the more slowly you'll lose weight. It's frustrating, but you have to trust in the process and keep working hard.

i wondered if that was the case, i am doing a sponsored spinathon tomorrow and have booked a body pump class next week so might see if that boosts it.

i dont think i have done the 21 in 6 weeks too unhealthily as i have had a couple of days where i have had things like chinese (within cals) and ive been trying to eat my exercise calories too. i did worry that it was coming off to fast but its been more like 2lb or 1lb the last two weeks

It also may just be that you had that initial honeymoon period where your body lets go of a lot of water. Most (not all) people lose bigger amounts the first few weeks. 1 to 2 pounds a week is healthy and normal and what you should be losing.
