Plateau Queen here... I started my weight loss journey 2.5 years ago..Lost 1 pound a week for 8 months..then I plateaued for a year!!! I tried changing my workouts, changing my eating habits and nothing helped.. after that year I started to gain weight again.. I gained 10 pounds and knew I had to do something. I then…

I have to send mine in for new batteries...Thank You!

I also am on thyroid meds.. I was stalled at a 30 pound loss, busted my *kitten* in the gym, and the scale didn't move. The inches came off but nothing on the scale.. I was told by two trainers..eat more (of the right foods) So I purchased The Metabolic Effect Diet, (book) I upped my protein, lowered my carbs and snacked…

Hey.. Good Job! I lift heavy,,have had horses for many years, and pole dancing is on my bucket list!! I have been working out for 2.5 years and still have a long way to go...you can add me if you would like.. Now that I have my workouts figured out, I'm working on the nutrition part. Trying to figure out what will work for…

You will need to find what works for you.. I have tried to not eat back my cals..I'm stuck..I eat back my cals..I'm still stuck. I work out with heavy weights 4 times a week and do cardio 3 times a week. I have the workout down pat..now I must work on the nutrition part. I have a very hard time eating enough during the day…

Good Luck..I've been at a plateau for over 7 months...Upped and lowered my cals, I do cardio and weights...weights and cardio, zumba, now trying lifting heavy for women...

Don't give up... I started losing in January 2011 was faithfully losing 1 pound a week..Until August...I had lost 30 pounds and I haven't lost a pound since. I've upped my cals and downed my cals... upped cardio, lowered cardio, upping my weights now with cardio and waiting to see what happens.. HOWEVER!!! Even after I…

Hey Ladies..just bought the book NROLFW..haven't gotten to far into it yet but working on it. Was wondering what your starting weights were for lifting? I lifted when I was in school 28 years ago, and was wondering what helped you determine your starting lift weights.. Good Luck fellow lifters.

You have to try this.... Fit Moms For Life http://dustinmaherfitness.com/ Good Luck..

I've been at a plateau for 7 months..upped my cals, lowered mycals, I lift heavy and have changed my cardio/weight routine over and over...but the big thing is..I haven't given up. Good Luck to all.

Hey...don't be knocken the 45 year old women!!! lol :noway: :tongue:

I wore my HRM...it was very interesting to see the results ::smokin: : ...and then...I added a partner...::blushing:

I've been at a plateau since August...have lost inches but the scale stays within 3 pounds give or take. I've upped my cals. lowered my cals., upped my workout and lowered my workout..Still nothing..the plus is ..I haven't given up ...YET. Good Luck to all.

All I can say is google this.. fitmomsforlife.com/

Do both but do your weights (heavy weights) before doing cardio. I have been at a plateau since august but have lost inches. I'm pretty sure it's due to the increase in muscle..Good Luck!

Sure is nice to read that...the scale hasn't moved since August for me..BUT..I had measured myself and I am losing inches...In fact todays weigh in was a gain. I also go by how my clothes fit. ...Thanks for hope..Good job!!

I do a core exercise called the vacuum . And what you do is exhale all your air and then tighten up your core and hold your breath..hold for 10 to as long as you can 2 - 5 times or more a day..it really does a great job for your core and on your abs...Good Job!

Google Dustin Maher..Fit Moms For Life..great weight training video. Also works on core and cardio.. All you need is a few weights from 5 - 20 pounds to start and a stayball. Good Luck!

I've been at a plateau for over 11 weeks...very frustrating. Glad I measured myself tho..because I've continued to lose inches. Stick with it..this to shall pass...I HOPE!! Good Luck! \

I prefer Lifting and strength training to cardio. My 21 year old son had his 40 pound dumbbell out the other day and was being a smart @$$ and said "Gee Mom...betcha can't do 5!" I did 5 bicep curls with 40 pounds (single arm)..I surprised myself. But usually start curls with 5s then 8s, 10s, and finish with 20. I love the…

Are you using a HRM?? because that seems like a big burn for the amount of time exercising..Just curious. I prefer strength and weight training over cardio. But my burn is never that high an hour..might want to check on that.

I don't smoke and I STILL read every comment...wow...

google Dustin Maher...he does an exercise called the vacuum... you can do it sitting, standing, laying or walking...exhale all of the air from your lungs then pull in your stomach and hold for about 15 to 30 seconds..do this as often as you want or can. Tightens up the muscles wonderfully. Also try planks. Good Luck!

Weights for 25 minutes (HRM 175 burn) walked 4 miles in under 30 degree weather with my dog (HRM 300 burn)

Wow!! what a thread...Wake Up People!! As a parent we need to talk to our kids at a Very young age...we raised our boys in the country with a variety of different animals..when these animals started breeding and the boys had questions we answered them..and took it from there. My boys knew everything about sex and stds at a…

11 weeks and counting!!! Good Luck and DON'T GIVE UP.

Make sure you measure yourself and take pictures..I've been at a plateau for 11 weeks but I'm losing inches. And 1 pound per week is the best way to go. Good Luck and don't give up! Weight training is going to help...do that Before cardio, and not just little weights, push your self.

I have them and hate them...heels haven't helped me at all...Sucks...I just may try the diuretic tho...Good Luck!!
