well, I had lost some weight but now..Im not budging another pound..It seems that way..I quit drinking pop so the first 25 fell off..Now im having trouble..Can anyone help?

Stay the course - let your body adjust. I just broke a seven month plateau. I truly think plateaus are our bodies way of saying - OK let me catch up. Be diligent in your eating - record each bite - make sure you get your water in.

It will happen!

did you change the way you excersize? I am having the same problem I lost 25 lbs the 1st 5 weeks and like you it just fell off but then I started weight training along with the aerobic excersize I was doing and now I am stuck I haven't lost an ounce in 2 weeks its really frustrating but I think it will pick up again in time.I hope

Plateaus are quite frustrating. I've been on one for months and months. I even went on Medifast to starve myself but my body just didn't want to cooperate. It seems to have other ideas.

Usually a plateau is short-lived, just a few weeks. I learned that since I lost weight, my body didn't burn as many calories as I did when I weighed more. Sometimes it's a factor of body mass, and I had to adjust to lower calories (but enough to keep my body from getting too efficient).

For this really long plateau, I noticed that my skin was really saggy at first, but after a year, it started to firm up again. So there were some adjustments that needed to happen. And I'm okay with the really slow weight loss since then.

It takes a lot of weight training and proper nutrition to build muscle, so I don't really think after two weeks of weight training you'd add that much weight from muscle. But what is great when you're doing weight training and aerobics is that you're burning fat off and gaining muscle, so the weight loss will slow down, but the clothes will get really loose. Your scale won't be speaking the language you want to hear, but your baggy pants will.

There may be other dietary changes you can make as well. All I did was make dietary changes and I dropped my first 40 that way. I eliminated all sugar and processed carbohydrates and other processed foods. I stopped going out. No alcohol. No cheese. I didn't cut my calories by much. Now I'm having to cut calories, and I'm trying to do it from fats, because that's where I usually get into trouble.
