I've lost 6lbs but now I am literally STUCK at a certain weight. I can't be at a plateau already!? I'm doing an hour of cardio/wt training 6 days a week but sometimes I don't make it to my net of 1200 calories. But then other days I can eat 1500 cals. My sodium is low and I've only gone over on protein a few times.

I also drink 2 liters of water everyday. What am I doing wrong and what can I do to get "unstuck" and continue to see the scale numbers go down. I've been stuck for about 3 weeks now! I don't know if I've lost inches but I'll be taking measurements today. Well, I'm off to my workout. I'll check back later. Thanks so much everyone!

    Maybe you need to start to zig-zag to calories to keep you body guessing . drink half your body weight in water. Are you eating a lot of carbs?

    First, it's really important to get your 1200 calories at minimum. And it sounds like you're working out a lot. You may be building more muscle mass than fat loss. It's also important to allow your body time to recover between workouts, so if your just getting started, you may want to take a half step back.

    without being able to view your food diary its hard to say if its due to something your eating. It could be your not eating enough.
