It's been about 3-4 months for me too. Technically I'd be considered a pescetarian as I still eat the occasional seafood, but I may eventually phase that out too. I'd love to swap stories and recipes though.

Sorry, that sounds really frustrating. I don't have any personal experience with this but I do know that a friend of mine hit a plateau with her weight loss and sought help from a trainer.

I actually did manage to lose most of the weight after my last pregnancy, but then over the past couple of years between a thyroid condition and a tendency toward emotional eating I gained everything back. I weigh more now than I did at 9 months…

I agree that taking a rest is probably the best thing. Without it your muscles will have a hard time recovering. A trainer I know once advised me against doing high intensity workouts more than 5 days a week so that your body gets a chance to recover. He also recommended alternating workouts so that you're not overworking…
