Scale frustration

Do you ever think there is a point when your body says I'm not going to let any more lbs go? I'm so frosted I want to loose the last 15 lbs and my body won't give it to me.

I have had a few stalls and it is a little frustrating, but I know it will come. I have been having to heal myself and at most times have been unable to eat and sometimes drink.

My body has gone into starvation, I am sure. I just wish it would go out! When I lose, I lose basically a pound a day. Seeing those same numbers every time I get on the scale is discouraging at times.

I bottomed out after seven months. I maintained that weight for a year. Then I contracted a 7-day stomach flu. I found it hard to eat. Lost a pound a day for a week. Then about a month later, I lost my taste for food for a few days. So between these two events, I lost a total of 10 pounds. I decided to maintain this new level and have done so for around 2 months.

When you are at bottom, there is another concern. It is that your body no longer has the protective reserve of fat to rely on should you suddenly get sick and lose weight.

Point taken.....just stinks to do everything right and see no results. I really think my body just won't give anymore up

I am at 8 months and took me a month to lose 5 pounds, that last 15 is gonna be hard.

I am only 4 months out and feel like I am at a plateau. Does this happen often in the journey? I started working out with a personal trainer and the weight really slowed down. I'm freaking out a bit.
