Weight loss stand still

I've been counting calories since Christmas Day. I lost 6.4 pounds the first 10 days and now these last three days I have been at a stand still. I'm not cheating and always staying between 1020-1350 calories a day. Drinking about 4 16.9 oz water bottles a day. Any advise or explanations to my stand still?

6.4lbs in 10 days is a LOT. Be patient with your body. Are you exercising? How is your sugar intake? I would suggest not weighing yourself for several weeks. I have found that weighing myself often discourages me more.
I have lost a total of 40lbs but in the last 2 months I haven't lost any weight on the scale. I'm not discouraged because I am still losing inches (I measure myself monthly).0 -
Thanks, it is discouraging knowing I'm doing everything I can with no scale results. Measuring sounds like a good idea, like you maybe I'm still losing inches. Thanks for writing back!0
