Hit my plateau and this ticks me off!
I have lost 10 lbs and to be honest wasn't too hard to do. I have 5 lbs left and I cant lose it!!! Eating right and exercising everyday. I go onto my account and enter my weight which was fun at first b/c it kept going down every day. But now not so much fun b/c the calorie count prediction of my weight loss is beating me. I am behind what they have estimated for me!!!!

Hope this isn't to late, haven't been on in a while for the same reasons. 1yr ago lost 40lbs. Now I am creeping up. 119 Feb1st now 123 today (pre menopausal though) If you look at my weight chart you will see I went through the same steady loss everyday a bit less sometimes leaps and bounds, then you hit the ledge. Try restarting your metabolism. As you weigh less you burn less calories doing the same things. There is a rule of thumb for this at the Biggest Loser sight, but I don't agree with their weight loss methods. (eating 1050 cal per day isn't good for anyone long term or short) (these numbers will vary depending on your current size weight height & activity. Try taking your intake up to 2000 per day if you are avg weight which I am assuming since you are only trying for 5 more lbs. Adjust if you are heavier. Do this high cal for 2-3 days then drop to 1200-1500per day depending on your intake now. (it should be at least 300-500 lower than your diet intake. Then go back up to about 1600 for 2-3 weeks til you loss the weight. You should be able to increase your calories again as you start to lose again without gaining. Hope this helps. Let me know I am starting the same thing today.
