Not losing weight anymore

Hey everyone,

So I have not lost any weight in about 5 or so days and prior to that it was only a pound. Previously I had been losing a pound a day but now I am just stuck. I am 6 ish weeks out and still following the meal plan. I am working out and keeping my calories at about 500 which is suggested. I know I am not drinking enough water or getting enough protein. I am just focused on calories because my dietician said I wasn't getting enough in. Should I change my focus to protein maybe? It is just really frustrating to be stuck at this weight when I feel like I am doing everything right.

Does anyone else have this problem? What did you do? I have a goal of losing 15 pounds in the next 6 weeks for a trip I am taking. I'd really like to fit into my clothes comfortably, ya know. Maybe I'll just go back to shakes and water?

Thanks for your time and your input.

keep in mind that the body does not lose pounds and inches at the same time. If you have been losing weight pretty steady your body may be breaking to lose inches. It seems weird but it is a back and forth roller coaster. Lose pounds lose inches, lose pounds, lose inches. I would keep plugging away as you are doing. Work on getting your protein and water intake in.

Good Luck and keep your chin up.
