Three months and 46 lbs down and stalled at 172 lbs. Been here for two weeks. Stepped up exercise and cut back calories. Just have to ride it out I guess. Wonder how long.

I'm riding right next to ya, Jenn

Hopefully this is a short ride... But we will lose again. Stalls are so blah.

Me too! I've been bouncing around 160 for 10+ days, funny thing is I've dropped a whole size while stalled. I think I'll do my measurements today to gain some perspective.

The scale will start moving again...soon!

I dropped a size too! What a crazy journey we are on. Let me know when your scale moves again.

I've been riding the same 3 lbs up and down for about FIVE weeks now, but I'm down 1 size. It's maddening.

If that doesn't work, try upping your calories for a few days to see if it breaks the stall.

I have a pretty regular cycle...10-12 days of rapid loss, then 7-12 days of stall (I like to call "Adjustment Period"...it's not so negative!). I typically lose 8-10 lbs during a loss phase, and 1-2 inches during an adjustment period. As long as I'm losing SOMETHING I feel pretty good. By day 10-12 of an adjustment period I do get pretty frustrated, though. I just have to remind myself that it's all part of the bigger journey.

I agree with butterthebean. I was at a stall for about 3 wks. I upped my calories and started losing again.

Just out of curiosity, did you keep them up or did you bring them back down to normal levels after the stall broke?

I have the same question. Once they scale starts moving again do you go back to your previous caloric intake or stay at the elevated levels. I'm so nervous about upping the calories, seems like its might be an opportunity for me to get of track. :/
