    I plataeued for 8 weeks back in October time.. It was around the time I started eating alot of dairy again and didn't realise it until I cut it down again! I also zigzagged my calories but wasn't until I upped to maintainance for a week that I started losing again. You can try zigzagging or maintainance Cal's to get it started again. Also try something new as a workout, I think the body gets fed up with one or two things all the time, maybe add something new to your workout. :-)
    Hope that helps and isn't just babble! I'm too sleepy to give advice, lol :-)
  • It's been a so-so week for me, im good at work but struggling at home but giving it my all for today and tomorrow so hopefully i'll stay the same. :/

    Good luck everyone x

    How is everyone doing this week? What are you doing for exercise? What works when you hit a plateau?

    doing good so far and hope fully ill keep it up for the rest of the week... ive been at a plateau for weeks now its doing my head in so i would also like to know the answer to this...

    I'm not sure about this either... if I don't have a decent loss this week I think I'm going to try zig-zagging, but when I up my calories I think I'm going to up the exercise too with some strenth training and maybe some extra cardio stuff... that might rattle my metabolism up a bit.
