Do probiotics slow weight loss? HELP
I've never heard that happening with probiotics. It seems unlikely.
What kind are you taking and how much?
Just thinking about other things that might cause a stall. See if any really apply to you.
Any other changes? Meds, protein, food overall?
It might just be a stall. Are you eating enough every day? Hitting protein and liquid goals? Sometimes if you aren't eating enough the body can go into "starvation" mode and you quit losing for a while.

I take some pretty high count probiotics and I don't think they've an an effect on WL. I do remember at 8, 9, 10 months out, my WL was really slow as I approached goal weight. Could just be coincidence that things are slowing, or your body is just taking a slight break, at the same time the probiotics are kicking in.

Im about 45 pounds from my goal and I worry that I will just stop and wont be able to get to my goal. Maybe its from years of being so large and not being able to lose that makes it scary for me. Im rethinking how Im eating and just going to try to relax and see if it starts again since Im just now 10 months out.
