up until recently I tracked for 140 days I started this journey about 6 months ago and started great and have been exercsing 5 x a week varying from classes and doing 5 mile runs. Then I got on the scales and my weight has not shifted i know it's not all about this. I have dropped a dress size but am stuck and don't know what to change as would like to lose another size/stone and don't want to go on a crazy diet want to do it healthy. Any ideas or motivation hints and tips would be great after last week I have Re started my streak and started a fresh. four weeks to my holiday and really pushing myself to be the best I can be.

Hello. So you have been eating and doing the same0

Smaller dress size means the exercise is working
No significant weight change over all this time means you are eating at maintenance. Probably a combination of overestimating your calories burned and underestimating how much you are eating.

Hey nanacyjay yes have been doing same exercise just up the intensity and eating the same.
Thank you aggelikik0 -
Could you clarify- how long have you been tracking your food and exercise and are you using MFP's calorie estimates for what you should be eating?
If you aren't using a food scale, I highly recommend it.0 -
Hey sorry Legup,
I have only just seen your message, Since then I took a month off and have now restarted my journey I went on holiday and put a few pounds on, Now determined more than ever to get these last 21lbs off for good.
