I need your advice please. I have plateaued after losing 11 pounds. I have been at the same weight for over a month now. I have really good restriction so I do not need a fill. How can I get the weight loss started again?

First of all, go back to your basics... Protein first, no drinking while eating, or 30 min afterwards, chew your food well, and most importantly... EXERCISE... change up your routine... sometimes that helps.

Also, dont stress... this will keep you on a plateau.. I learned this the HARD way. I was dealing with a death in the family,(almost) divorce from my husband, kids issues, family issues, as well as job losses! this year has been quite the bumpy road for me, but I refocused myself, and got my determination back, and my butt back to the gym, & I am FINALLY breaking my plateau!!

you can do it!!!

Wow Msmelc! Congratulations on your 113lb weight loss. That's incredible.

Thank you for the advice. I have less than 3 weeks to lose at lease 5 more pounds before I leave for vacation. I'm going low carb and will increase my exercise. Wish me luck!

Change up your routine that usually gets me going again after hitting a platue.

I usually eat the same things daily for a while so when I hit a point where the scale dont move for a while I change what I am eating.

Great advice so far.

Also, if you are on a very low calorie diet, try eating 100-200 more calories a day. It sounds backwards but it actually works. I think because it gives your body more fuel to burn or something.

thank you... Just remember... when you do something drastic, like cutting carbs quickly, your body has a memory, & will think that you are starving it.... balance is the key... and you will be fine... change your exercise routine... also, make sure you are getting enough water! good luck, & enjoy your vacation!

As mentioned earlier if possible change up your work out routine. I normally do lap swimming. When I do regular cardio; I think it totally confuses my body.
