My doctor insists on 60 minutes of cardio 5-6 times a week. If you increase the number of days you are exercising that might help. :)

thank you NC Mama

Although the scale might be on vacation right now.....have you thought about measuring yourself?Sometimes we are building muscles and our bodies start to change shape. It might help to have a base measurement of you waist, thigh, arms, calfs...and when the scale stops, switch to measuring yourself, you may see some differences and that will help you keep motivated during the slow times.

Also I would suggest shocking your sysytem. Change up your exercise routine. If you always do 30 mins on a treadmil, try doing 30 mins on the elliptical.Consider adding an extra day of exercising. Same thing with diet. If you aren't already doing a high protein/low carb diet...consider shocking your system by depriving it of carbs for a couple of weeks.....that usually works for me.

Is it time for a fill maybe?

Waitingpatiently offers good advice! Sometimes you need to "shock" your system into going, either by doing a temporary increase of Protein or good carbs, depending on which works best for you.

I also agree, I'd try to notice size change rather than weight change. There's a good chance you're not losing pounds right now but are losing inches.
