    Your only fault is your lack of patience. Also, please try to meet your goal and don't go under. You need to fuel your day and going too far under can cause fatigue, which can then mess with daily calorie burn.

    Did you start new exercise? Are you due for your period? Read this article.

    Give it time! A loss is a loss, no matter how small. Keep at it, drink plenty of water and make smart food choices. Don't fall into the trap of "..the hell with it".. You can do it, one day at a time.

    Too soon to make a judgement for several reasons including those that posters above have mentioned. Patience, this is a marathon not a sprint.

    1lb is 1lb you wouldnt have lost otherwise. Your doing fine. Ill just slide this in here since you seem the type to panic....I have went entire month losing no weight. I knew i was at a steep deficit and i should have lost atleast 2-3 pounds. Then suddenly one night overnight id be down 4 pounds. Your body will do its body things, Aslong as you keep to it and track honestly, You will lose. Its just not consistently smooth.
