So...how long can stalls go on? I'm hanging in there, but still...it's not easy. One of these days, the stall will be over!

Hang in there Mary!  We have all been there and it is so frusterating when the scale doesn't move.   Could it be you are not getting enough in and your body is freaked out and stalling?

Hi, Amy.
Well, as far as calories go (checking my food journal), I log anywhere from 800-1,150 calories. Some days I can eat more than others. I get in at least 64 oz. of water daily.  For percentages on the other stuff, I try to keep at or below the following: Fat 45%, Protein 40%, Carbs 15%. Most of the time, I'm successful at that.
With not being able to get in the pool, I feel like I'm struggling with the exercise part. Among walking (outside), the mini-trampoline, Gazelle, and arm bike, I get in 16-30 minutes of exercise per day. I know that's not much, but it's what my joints can tolerate, at this point. I know that will improve, as I lose more weight and build more muscle.
Most days, the only "snacking" I do is having my cup of high-protein hot cocoa (with MiraLax in it) midmorning and, lately, a Medifast shake in the midafternoon. I figure it's fluids, so maybe Chris won't kill me on Thursday.
I know Somer is going to teach me how to use the Bands I just purchased, so maybe that will help mix things up a bit.
If you see anything amiss, let me know. Thank you for your reply and help.
Blessings,
Mary

It sounds like you are doing everything right so its just going to take a little bit for your body fat   to admit defeat!  I love my protien hot chocolate!! Hang in there Mary, you are doing great regardless of what the scale says this week.
