I don't know if you have ever tried Fasting but you should join the FB group called Resetters and watch YouTube videos by Dr Mindy Pelz. She talks of multiple types of fasting (I believe there are 7). Fasting for Autophagy is the best for breaking stalls and for losing those pesky last 10-20 pounds. But not only for weight loss, fasts can be quite beneficial for other areas of health and well-being as well. Good luck and Best wishes.
