I just recently got through a very long and hard plateau thanks to everyone on these boards. i was stuck at 207 for about a month and tried what i thought was everything but with a little research and alot of help i found that i needed to eat more! Who Knew? Thanks to an increase of calories ans a varied exercise routine i was able to weigh in at 203 just a week and a half later! Feels so good to see a new number on the scale and i even feel leaner from the exercise. Thanks a bunch guys, my recent small victory is because of all of you!

    That is fantastic. I know plateaus are frustrating, and I know it sounds backwards to increase your calories to lose weight, but our body needs fuel. I have hit 2 plateaus in my weight loss journey, and I am sure another one is around the corner (it happens everytime I change decades). You could also try zig zagging your calories to help too (it worked for me). Congrats on breaking the plateau!!!
