Holly5.3 423 Posted February 16, 2013 Well, I never had a stall, until now. I've been teetering between 199 and 201 pounds for 2 weeks now! I was so excited to go under 200 for the first time in 19 years, only to see the scale go back up past 200 again! I added more Protein Powder to my diet and have been drinking my Water. I walked a lot this week and shoveled snow! Why, for the love of God, why? The only difference in my diet is I bought the wrong Calcium supplements so I haven't had calcium citrate in about 3 weeks-could that affect loss? I'm eating 600-650 cals. a day. Could the no loss be muscle weight? I'm hoping, praying, and staying tight on plan today and we'll see what this week brings. I won't weigh myself again until next Sat. Anyone else experience the 'milestone' back 'n forth dance? Not fun! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cbd 78 Posted February 16, 2013 That happened to me around the 210 mark...I actually increased my calaries a little...kept with my Protein and Fluid intake steady and it started to drop again. I am now 203 this morning and looking forward to that one on the scale. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vidalia 122 Posted February 16, 2013 I could have written your post! I have been hovering at 200 for 2 weeks now also. Onederland has actually been scary for me to think about psychologically for some reason. I think it is because I have lost large amounts of weight in the past and every time I get to close to Onederland is when the weight started coming back on. Also, I have not been in Onederland in over 15 years when I started gaining all my weight (also the year my dad died and I went through divorce). I am hoping my stall breaks soon.

karenb4729 309 Posted February 16, 2013 The 200lb mark was the hardest one for me to get through. From 204 to 199 took well over a month and was done in very small increments - once I got there then it started coming off again faster. I found that I seem to stall out every 20lbs or so. I hated getting on the scale and seeing the .2, 4, .6 loss and the .8 increase up and down, yo-yo stuff.... keep doing what you are doing and it will happen!
