Q: Why Did I Stop Losing Weight?

I have a question for the forum. I've lost 24 pounds from the middle of november until the begining of jan. But I haven't lost any weight since. What's the deal?

I've been eating the same things which is usually for breakfast either a bowl of cereal or bagel and a yogurt with either at 10 am.
For dinner I usually have romaine letters with grilled chicken and low cal. Dressing.

For exercise, I fast walk on a treadmill for a halh hous 5 days a week. I usually but not lately drink a 1/4 gallon of water day as well.

Any ideas why I stopped losing weight? Your responses are greatly appreciated.

You have hit a plateau. Many people do this when they have lost alot of weight. Just hang in there and your body will start to burn fat again. Dont forget about weight traing too. Muscle mass will burn fat when your not even thinking about it. Wink good luck.

The same thing happened to me. You have to eat even less and burn even more calories now. It might take a while to start up again but you'll start losing weight again soon enough but at a smaller pace.

Stopped Loosing ..
Yes your body has gotten use to what u have been eating.. Meaning this amount of food is now what ure body is use to..


You will have to try some thing else.. This useally works for me...

Get off your diet for about a week and eat whatever.. This throws your metabolise for a loop...

Then after a week go back to your diet...You should start back to loosing..

Your metabolize gets into a habit.. Throw it off course for a while and u should return to loosing again..

Hope this helps you.. And good luck..And dont feel guilty about cheating for a week.. You are trying to get your metabolism.... Moving again..
