    I really don't now why I'm bothering. I have said already, its not the advice I have a criticism of, its the way it's put. If people want to reply to something, fine, I just don't see why you have to make an effort to be rude. Is it just a competition to see who can 'shout' the loudest or a show of 'who can speak to someone the worst'?. Well done. I've respectfully replied to all of those who have given me advice and I thank them for it again. If you reply to someone's question, surely you are doing it to help, so why try to hide that fact?

    Anyway- to those who gave very kindly gave me advice- thanks a million, I'll start first thing tomorrow. :smiley:

    I don't know, I still don't see how it was rude. Yes people (including me) assumed that you are not logging properly and underestimating your food intake... don't take it personally - a LOT of people in the same boat as you do just that... undrestimate their food intake and are wondering why they are not losing weight... I mean a lot of your entries seem like estimations. And like someone said, it's fine when you have more to lose, but as you get closer to your goal, your deficit is smaller and you have to be more precise.

    I don't see how long you've been at that plateau, but it might be just a stall - how long has it been? After a few months I started having stalls of 3 weeks after my period every single month - it's not uncommon for women to stop losing 2-3 weeks before their period, then to lose weight again.

    Either way, 1200 is really not much food at all for most women, even without exercise... I'm guessing that with your kids you're on your feet a lot.
