Hey everyone I'm currently at a point where I'm stuck at 224 not going up or down on the scale although I'm happy I'm maintaining rather than putting on i wanted to know why is this happening ?

    How much weight have you lost? Have you recalculated your calories to make sure you are still in a deficit?

    If you aren't using a food scale might help. And, I understand the frustration. I was stuck at 210 for almost seven weeks, and my scale as read 205.8 for 8 days in a row now. Keep the focus and you'll continue to see results.

    it happens. first few lbs seem to come off so easily. then bam... nothing. just keep being consistent with your logging, exercise, calorie intake control, and the scale will start moving again.

    It's called a plateau. Unfortunately it happens during weightloss. Make sure you keep at it, keep counting calories and keep exercising. One day the scale will change again!
