Hi I have reached exactly the same problem and put a post in the forum just yesterday about it , the replies i got were very helpful and all said the same as above you need to up your calories ... i only have 2lb left to reach my goal but have not gained or lost for the past 3 weeks ... so i have followed the advice i was…

Hi Natalie, Welcome to MFP ... my husband and I have both been logging our calories and upping our exercise which has worked well for us both , we have found it much easier to follow and lose weight than any other 'diets' out there. Hope it works for you too. Best of luck on your journey. Lorri :smile:

Thanks for the advice, I have changed to now lose 0.5lb a week which has changed my calories to 1510 per day ... I will try this for a few weeks and fingers crossed it will do the trick :happy:

Thank you for the replies so far , they are all very helpful :smile: I only buy the fat free yogurts but am finding they vary from 7 - 9g of sugar per 100g ... I am not sure how this compares to full fat yogurt i will have to look and compare fat/sugar etc next time im shopping :smile:

Natural fat free yoghurt with Granola for me or a poached egg (takes 30 seconds in the microwave) on a slice of toast ! Good luck :-)

Hi Dont be disheartened, you are doing great. I had a really bad hungry day a few days ago but i have sussed it out if i bulk out my meals with lots of fresh veg or salad which are minimal calories it helps to keep me full. PS i had a bad day on Friday i went to an evening wedding reception and didnt have the will power to…
