    Six months for 53 pounds. All diet. I weight lift sometimes but nowhere near regular enough to make a difference...but I'm changing that!!! If you aren't losing either your calories aren't low enough, you are overestimating your caloric burn or you aren't logging as good as you think you are. On the rare occasion I exercise I never count the calories burned...they're just a "bonus" to my deficit.

    Before myfitnesspal I lost around 40 pounds over the course of a year just trying to watch what I eat without counting calories.

    I've lost around 12 pounds over 16 weeks so far on myfitnesspal. I think I could have lost more by now but I did not record when I took a 5 week road trip to visit family. I don't really regret making that decision (I don't have a smart phone, so it would not have been possible most days), however I do realize that it set me back from my goal by 5 weeks as well. I didn't lose or gain during that time-frame.

    So in reality I guess it took me 11 weeks to lose 12 pounds.

    Even though the scale isn't moving, you could still be making progress. I know I was frustrated this week with being VERY diligent about logging (think food scale for every measurable item that wasn't prepackaged) and the scale wouldn't budge. I was retaining water because of my TOM. The water has been slowly coming off. Even though the scale isn't budging, I'm continuing to log, exercise, and do the other things that I need to do because I could be toning my body and losing some inches. Eventually the scale will catch up.

    The biggest thing I've learned is not to give up just because the scale isn't cooperating. There could be many reasons for it. Just be diligent with logging your entries, stick to your deficit, and consider not eating back all of your exercise calories (maybe just a percentage of what you get as MFP seems to overestimate what you burn). Personally, I'm not going to let a week of water weight stop me on this journey!

    6kg (13lbs) in 7 months, yup I am going pretty slow, and yes I have been investigating why. Quite frustrating. But at least I am doing it. Just start IF 5:2 lets hope that works.
