Drum Roll Please...

Still STUCK!

Okay, now it is July 6th and I am far from my goal of 250. So now what??

This past week, I have been walking about 2 miles every night before I go to bed. At first it looked like I might finally break 280#, but this morning I gained again. I continue to hover around 285#. Sometimes a little more and sometimes a little less.

Well, I'm not giving up. I'll continue to work on this.

Sorry to hear you're on a plateau! But good for you for not giving up!!!!! That's such a great attitude to have. If I had only lost 15lbs in 5 months (doing a little math based on your stats) I would have lost hope ages ago so kudos to you!!

When is the last time you had a fill? How's your restriction? Are you tracking your calories? Maybe you need to step up the exercise. You're doing cardio and walking 2 miles, which is great! Maybe you need to add weight training to build muscle, which will burn more fat.

Keep up the great attitude and motivation!

You will get there, I am sure :0). My last couple of months have been a continuous cycle of plateau, lose, plateau, lose . . . . . and on and on and on. It is not even a surprise anymore.

You are doing awesome being 60 pounds down. I can't keep up with you :0)

I appreciate the encouragement. Maybe by the end of July I can get below 280.

Hey Big-D,

I saw on another post where someone said that they vary thier routine a lot when stuck on a plateau. Eat a lot one day, a little the next, lots of cardio, no cardio etc.

I saw where another has a Plateau Busting Diet, but I haven't seen it yet.

I always get a little kickstart when I get a fill and have to do the 48 hours of liquid.

Good luck to you, I know you'll do it!!!
