I have the same problem. So decided to track other things than weight for those times where I’m putting in the work and the scale doesn’t budge. Take your measurements, track how long/fast you walk, or how many push ups and body squats you can do. That way you can always focus on something that’s going the right direction.
Keep at it, eventually, the weight with come off.

I have used this Challenge the past two years as a means to focus my WL effort on an achievable weekly goal. And IT WORKED! I lost 80# not 104# BUT I’m now near my GW.

Never too late to join in! A pound a week is the Goal no matter how many weeks it takes.

As for cutting and pasting directions I’m a 69 yo with minimal IT technology skill but I put my finger on my iPhone screen and then hit copy and then go to new post and touch screen and select Paste.
Any millennial on here may be better to ask or explain “How To”...
