I finally hit the stall

So I thought if I kept exercising everyday and I kept active, ate right etc, I could avoid the stall. Nope.

I'm back up to an average of 12.5 miles a day walking/slow jog and I feel like I just cannot get enough to eat. I feel like I'm starving my body. I weighed this morning and it showed me actually gaining 2 lbs. LOL.

I'm not freaking out as I know I'm doing everything right and the weight will start to come off again soon.

Part of me wants to cut back on calories and then part of me also wants to try to increase caloric intake. I just want the weight to fly off again.

That muscle is replacing a lot of the fat, hence you might not show an overall loss or even a gain. But does the tape measure say you are smaller? clothing looser? Heck do you feel better? I wish I could accomplish what you are doing, some days I can hardly walk at all due to old injuries. Stay positive and keep it up!

I bet you are losing inches, even though the scale says you gained.
