After 2 months being stuck with absolutely no progress I think the tide has changed. Just measured myself and........ I have lost 1/2 an inch around my tummy in the last week plus 1/4 of an inch on each arm and leg as well as 1/2 an inch on the hips!

Yippee. Sooooooo happy! It may not seem like much to anyone else but after being 'stuck' for soooooo long this is great progress for me.

I did broke the plateau by actually reducing my work outs, alternating between HIIT and intense weight training and eating a little more.

Interestingly my weight remains virtually unchanged. I guess the increased weight training is paying off!!!!!!

Yay me! :laugh: :happy: :happy:

    It is indeed VERY frustrating but stick with it. The weight training really helps I think.

    I'm so glad those changes have worked for you. I also know that you would take losing inches over losing pounds any day!
