For the last couple of weeks, I have been stuck on 205lb. I weigh myself every Monday, in the same place, after going toilet, and naked, just to make sure i get an accurate reading. But it's been stuck for 2 weeks now on 205 lb. HEEEEEEEELP!!!

    Add some fiber to your diet and change your workout up.

    Plataeu's stink! Are you drinking enough water and getting a good amount of fiber (fruits and veggies)? Those are the things that help me break through a plataeu.

    Good luck!

    mix it up in yor workouts - push that bit harder for a week or try a new form of exercise for example if you used to running try cycling, and also go back over your food diary and see if you can make it any better e.g can you cut out some biscuts and deserts and add in some fruit and fat free yogurt? change some red meats to lean chicken and fish? small changes will make a big difference!

    I have had a cold this week, and ironically I have not drunk as much water or eaten as much fruit as I normally do, maybe this seems to be a valid reason. now the weather has perked up a bit, Ill be starting to go running and bike riding through the hills :-)
