Don't step on the scale!! You technically need to go without any weight loss for three weeks in order to be in a true stall.

I've found that my body needs time to adjust before I start losing again. I am four months out and I will typically lose a pound a day for 5 days and then nothing for 7 to 10 days. I have a rule I've established for myself. If I step on the scale and my weight has not changed then I put my scale away for 7 days!!! I also take my measurements every month....Something I started doing at week 3 due to the dreaded week 3 stall.

The other thing I do when I'm frustrated with lack of weight loss is I pull clothes out of my closet and drawers that are too small (or that I THINK are too small) and try them on.....it always makes me feel good!!!

I have gone up and down with the same 1.5 lbs for 3 weeks. BUT I've lost 3 inches off my waist and 6 inches total off other parts of my body. I'm not sweating it, because I know it will come off.

I'm 7 weeks out too.
