6 month out and for the last month I have been losing and gaining the same 3 lbs. I am beside myself. Is this it? I this where I am going to stop? Is this normal?? HELP!!

It is very normal, just continue doing what you are doing

What is your eating like? Calories, carbs, Protein, etc.?

Same here. I've technically only lost 2 pounds this month because of the 3 pound bounce back and forth.

Here is what I'm doing. I'm going to change up my exercise routine. Instead of cardio like I normally do most of the time, I'm going to concentrate on more circuit training this month (strength/resistance/resulting in increased heart rate).

I've also been eating quite a bit of fruit, resulting in more sugar and carbs than I usually eat. I'm going to cut the fruit out this month (sad face) just to jump start the weight loss. I'm going to also cut out a snack (I've been having up to 3 Snacks a day, lol).

I will be keeping my calories the same, (1200-1300 at 11 months out), but will just be eating different things to get them.

Sometimes you just gotta shake things up

yup ive been doing the 2-3 pound bounce, it just happens. Try going back to what works for you , increase your Fluid intake decrease your food intake. try swapping out a Protein shake for 1 of your meals, etc.

Changing up your routine is a great way to bring you back on track.

For me i changed from 6 to 7 miles on the bike to a 2 mile fast paced walk. and im adding some circuit training in this week as well. so change things up a bit. itll happen, also watch your sugars and carbs. try to get them down to minimal amounts.

You Can do this!
