Are you measuring yourself? The scale is not the whole story. I went from a size 14 to a size 10 with only losing 5 lbs. I'm working out like crazy, my hips are narrowing, my waist is shrinking, my thighs, are getting more firm, as are my arms. I keep dropping the width on my bras!

But in that time I've fluctuated between 172 and 168. Sometimes up, sometimes down. I'm about to start trying on size 8's and haven't lost a single lbs in 3 weeks.

Also make sure your sodium intake isn't too high causing retention, check to see when you will be getting your period as that can cause Water weight gain as well.

DON'T PANIC!!!!!!!!!!! You are committed to this, working hard. It will happen for you, don't give up and don't be discouraged!!!!! CHeck your measurments, enjoy the success you've had so far. You are doing AMAZING! You have recommitted and are on fire, this is exciting.

If your working really hard at the gym you may be gaining muscle weight (which weighs more than fat).

I'm with you... I want to cry too because I know I'm going all in. Just keep pressing on.

My weight loss stalled when I started lifting weights. For about a month. The inches still dropped though. After a month I lost a couple pounds. Encouraged, I started lifting heavier weights. Sure enough, I gained those 3 pounds right back and added another.
I'm not a doctor, I don't know why it happens. I just know it happens.
Don't stop working out. I bet you lose inches even if you don't lose any weight or actually gain a little.

I am between 8-9 months out and a couple months ago, I'd not been as disciplined. I've been stalled or stuck in the same 5lb range for about 2months. For the last month, I've gotten back on track with what I eat and I've been killing it in the gym. Last week, id dropped 4lbs taking me to 222lbs. This week, I've been working just as hard and I've gained over 5lbs. Can someone shed some light. I'm trying really hard not to cry because it makes no sense.

Sweetie don't cry, you said you've been killing it at the gym right? It could be muscle gain. They do day muscle weighs 3x more than fat. Don't be so hard on yourself. You've got this.
