as you are loosing weight without proteins you will burn muscle. You need strong muscles for your structure. Increasing protein with help with weight loss.
You are working out and do not want to get dehydrated. Fluids is really how you loose weight. not thru waste.
Either one of these items could put you into a stall. Increase both and you may see a difference.

Beth I have found that working out has slowed the weight loss BUT BUT has kept my sizes go down. Sounds like you have a keen sense of self awareness.
Try upping your protein suppliments and increase this time of year your fluids. Keep in touch and let us know how you are doing,

Tomorrow hubby works & I am going out to dad's again to see my aunt & uncle, might bring my niece home with me. BIL is supposed to come over to go fishing with hubby. Sunday is my stepdad's bday dinner & we have soccer.
Yesterday's food results:
cuppas & protein in

S - crackers
L - cheeseburger & sun chips
S - carrots
D - bbq chicken, beans
40 oz of water
a couple of bites of cake
Todays plans:
B - oatmeal (heart healthy serving size
S - crackers or carrots
L - leftover steak & beans & some potato salad
S - carrots or crackers
D - not sure
Have a great day & fabulous weekend!!!!!!!!1
