Hi everyone, I have been on MFP since November 2011 and have lost 17lbs. I have not been able to lose anything since the beginning of January. I eat right and exercise a lot but cannot seem to loss anything. I work with a nutritionist and had my blood work done so there is nothing medically wrong. I am open to any suggestions please help.

    i also started in nov and i only lost about 2 lbs a month max. In jan i hit plateau for the entire month, so i upped my calories in feb. since then i have already lost 2 lbs. I was at a 1200 diet before that and now i am 1310. i always eat my exercise calories back. I also now will not eat under my bmr of 1252 and try not to go over 1500 as that is maintenance. i am also 5ft 2 inches. so i guess it depends on what you have been doing since nov, maybe upping your calories will kick start you too ?
