    I'm not trying to lose weight at 1800, I've been maintaining at this weight, but I would like my body to change... I know to lose weight you have to eat at deficit. That's how I lost the 40, but I want to slim down without restricting calories. Thank you for all your suggestions, if by the end of the month I see no difference then I will consider lowering my calories to 1,500 and changing from HF/LC to more HC/LF. High fat is not working for me right now anyway, I'm always hungry and craving sugar. I have a lot of stress too, college, a break up, financial... :'( I'm also on birth control, which might also play a role. I've made the decision to get off it. Hopefully, I'll see changes soon!

    I'm in a similar boat as you! Holding at 109-112 and trying to figure out what my next steps should be. I shouldn't lose too much more weight given my body structure so I've turned my goals into body fat percentage and inches instead of pounds. It's a better judge of fitness when you get to weights like ours. Advice on food, try mixing up your daily intake over the course of the week where some days are 1200 calories and others are 1800. Within that, change up the high protein days with more fruits/veggies so that your body can benefit and doesn't become used to the same things day after day. Another thing I just started has been infusing water with various mixtures like lemon lime and cucumber or cinnamon and apple with honey. They all have different benefits and can keep water from being boring :). I'm still working on figuring out this plan for myself so add me as a friend and we can keep up with any new ideas!
