    Yes - I have in the past. I hit a plateau, couldn't get past it, so I increased my calorie intake and started losing again. It is very possible, not uncommon at all. After I hit goal (4 more lbs), I am going to increase my calories to wanting to lose .5 lb/week because I want to get to mid-30's before I start maintaining. Your body is adjusting, don't be alarmed.

    Bumping is also used to make the topic show in your "My Topics" section as a reminder to check responses later.
