I have only loss 5lbs in the last 2 months, (49 since September 9). I've been following all of the rules. Getting my protein in. Going to the gym 5 days a week. I really don't know what else to do. Do u have any suggestions to jump start my weight loss???

Stay off the scale, take your measurements instead. Also make sure you're getting in protein and fluids. Stalls come and go, you just have to power through them.

I have stayed off the scale for a while because I was getting so frustrated. Got back yesterday and still nothing after 2 weeks. Ugg. Is anyone else having these problems or did have them? If so, what did u have to do to jump start your weight loss again?

Everyone has them. Stalls can last from a few weeks to months. Make sure you're getting in all your protein, drink your water and exercise. All you can do is follow your program until your body decides it's not starving. In the meantime look for NSV and take your measurements to compare the differences.

I totally understand. I am really frustrated. I have lost 23 lbs since Dec. 19 (surgery date) but I have stalled for the last two weeks in terms of total weight loss. I have however lost 39 lbs of fat so my BMI is down 11% in this same period. I am extremely frustrated to not see the "weight" come off the scale. I have spoken to my nutritionist and she says I am doing fine.... UGH....

I am there too. Great losses then stall. I am sooo close breaking the 200 pound mark and just feel like I m stuck. Will I look at it and never make it. ? Some days my confidence totally wanes. Other days I tell myself I have come so far I must celebrate the success. I need a local group. Anyone out there from NH. ???
