HIIT 4 weeks in question, scale is up from when i started

I did intermittent fasting all through March, and gained 2 pounds. I think maybe just do the waiting thing, sounds like a plateau to me. I have dieted enough times to say that I, personally, have a plateau every 5 pounds, once things are underway and I am on task (<1500 calories per day). Since it takes me an entire month to lose just 6 pounds, it can take awhile to see the scale move. With people like us (with slowwww metabolisms), scales are not really our friends, I've found. The hard part of any of this, for me, is keeping my calories down, so, because I know I am on task, and the scale is not really going to move, much, or even frequently, I only weigh myself, once a month. If the six pounds is gone, I don't sweat it. :)Those peeps who can lose 10 or more pounds per month, just don't know how lucky they are. Those of us with Neanderthal metabolisms are pretty much forced to develop patience with the process..........:( I wish I had more to give you in turns of support.........sounds pretty normal to me.

I am on week 6 on my health life style and I am averaging 2 pounds a week. I am not considering myself lucky. I have accomplished it by sticking within the calories on mfp, logging in every single mouthful I take, even on days where I considered not logging. I have decided I must be accountable for every bite. I measure all food and that within itself has been a huge learning experience for me. I don't have a scales so I take the weight off the package of meat and go on google and convert the weight to ounces so I can gauge the calories more realistically. I try to do 30 minutes to 1 hour of exercise every night and maybe a bit more on weekends if I feel up to it. Luck is not involved, I did it through hard work and perseverance. If I don't lose weight that particular week I know I either need to make alterations to what I am eating or increase my activity, there are no other options.
