Its this normal

That weight loss slows down now it barley moves not like before...Has this happened to anyone??? Alice

Alice Hi You're going to plateau many times. Sometimes it will just stand still for weeks-months and it's a shock when you're used to seeing it go down. Stay the course

My last post is about this same slow down issue. You can come over and whine with us. Lynda

I think it's normal...so many people on this board are complaining of the same thing. I think we've all plateau'ed at the same time. I'm about to pull all my hair out in frustration...

NO!! Don't pull your hair out. If you are cursed like me, it will start falling out all by itself any day now. I'm losing strands by the handful this month. Thank God I had fairly thick hair to start with but if this keeps up, I'll be bald by Christmas. Lynda

it's frustrating,, i get on the scale every morning hoping for just one pound,, i have not lost anything in over two weeks,, and only 45 total from my surgery date,, i upped the protein, upped the water,, but nothing,, ggrrrrrr,,,, one pound and i will be in the 190's,, i just hope to get to goal by one year,, at this slow pace i wonder if i will

I'm feeling the same way...seems I lose one pound every two to three weeks now, it's so very frustrating. Cindie U. 308/253/hoping for 135!

Just jumping in to let you know I'm having the same problem. Between the hair falling out and no weight loss - its all becoming a little frustrating. This is one of several plateaus I've hit in 4.5 months, each one lasts a bit longer - EEKK. I've also noticed that I'm letting that frustration bring back some of my old - and very poor - coping methods. Its just a small bite here and there or a handful of this or that. Bottom line - I'm eating things that I don't need and they have no nutritional value. The extra calories certainly can't be helping. I'm trying very hard to learn to take a walk and a drink of water when I am feeling so frustrated! Linda

I know this one! I ate a dozen cookies from the dessert table at my best friend's son's wedding this past weekend. It took me half an hour but I ate them and didn't dump.... damn it. I've gotten frustrated and thought "well what the hell". Bad habit from the past which I am determined to nip in the bud again. At least I still dump from french fries or this month could get ugly. Keep your chin up and press on. Lynda

What's been going on with me is that the weight is jumping around within the same couple of pounds for a while. I'm losing a little bit now--not very quickly, though. For a while I wasn't losing anything, poundage wise, but I was still losing inches, cuz I got into a smaller size of jeans that I hadn't been able to fit into a couple of weeks before. It's quite disconcerting, but as long as I'm making progress, it's a positive thing. I put a new picture up on my profile.
