Help I am at a nine month plateau

I have only lost three pounds in about a month. I have not really weighed myself very often throughout my journey due to my scale is not very accurate. I live in an old house with many slanted floors. I have found an accuracte place for my scale. I have only lost 2-3 pounds in a month or more. Does anyone have any ideas to get the weight loss going a little quicker? I know it slows down but should it be this dramatically? I have lost about 93 pounds and I would like to loose at least another 7-25 pounds. I don;t really have a personal goal and my sergeon does not make goal weights either. Please let me know if anyone has any ideas. I do drink my water, get my protein in and I exercise 4 times a week and I really do not want to increase my exercise due to time and family commitments. Thanks for any ideas. Janet

Janet You already hit the nail on the head...the weight loss is going to slow and sometimes stall at this point in our journey...BUT it has not stopped. I lost NO WEIGHT in the past month. My body is still changing as my size in clothing is changing...but you have got to stay focused on doing the right things. Water, protein, vitamins, exercise...you know what you have to do and if you're doing it then don't beat yourself up about the scale. Trust in what you're doing and know that you're body will do what it's supposed to do as well. Congratulations on your success! Tanya

Janet; I lost just 4 lbs. this last month (and 98 lbs. total). I've got 4-18 lbs. to goal (depending on which measurement you go by). My big change in the last month is that I increased my workout intensity and frequency and I think I'm probably not eating enough for my new activity level. I've got a call in to my nut to find out which carbs I should be adding in to help balance things out. Blessings, Jennifer

i too just hurdled my 9 month plateu (see my previous post on this message board). I hadn't moved the scale in nearly 2 months. I went back to the basics, food diary to log all protein, calories and fluid. I increased fluids to 90+ ounces, 80+protein....dropped nearly 5 pounds in 2 weeks and most of all....I finally passed the 100# mark. I suggest getting back to the basics ( I think I was grazing a little too much...thinking I had to eat protein all the time). It worked for me....good luck! Stephanie

Thanks for everyones input. I have finally dropped 5 pounds. this last week. I was getting a little dicouraged for awhile. I only have 2 pounds to hiy my 100 pound weight loss. Sorry I did not get a chance to respond sooner. I am in the proccess of getting ready for another year at school. Good Luck on everyones weight loss journey! Janet
