The whole grain brownies were really good...it was really hard to limit myself to just one serving. I don't know if I'll make them again for that exact reason...maybe only on special occasions.
The scale isn't moving at all folks...I don't know what is going on. Someone take a look at my menus and give me some advice, please.

Zeff: Your menu looks so healthy, it's hard to imagine you need to change much...I've been thinking about stalls too as I haven't lost lately either. When I look back to the times when I was losing, I was eating Ph1 or Ph1.5 and I was exercising 3-4X per week. Currently I am eating Ph2 and exercising 3-4X per week, and I've really struggled to lose. I went back to Ph1 for 11 days and lost 1 pound (which I subsequently gained back 2 days later ) I'm wondering if going back to a P 1.5 wouldn't be the way to go? Something not as limiting as Ph1, but strict enough that there are limited WW carbs and fruits. There have got to be some gals on here who have been in this slump. How did they move forward??? Well, there is a positive to all this. The positive is we know this will be a great maintenance plan once we get there !!!
