kiahna23 what is your 'nutrional program'? Calorie counting, portion control, low carb, no fat, etc....?

kiahna -- I though you were a P90X devotee. Why aren't you following the eating plan?

How can it be a plateau if you don't know how much you're eating? Isn't that just maintaining?

Calorie counting isn't that hard. Seriously. If you make something with 3 ingredients, add up those three ingredients and divide by the number of servings. Or closely follow recipes that include calorie counts.

How do you know how much you're eating? Do you measure? Weigh? I think you're freaking out about a plateau that isn't there. A plateau is when you KNOW what you're eating, you KNOW that the calorie count is where it should be for you to lose, and yet you still aren't losing. What you're describing is just eating, exercising, and not gaining any weight.

Start some sort of plan that includes tracking and measuring what you eat and some amount of calorie restricting. Keep working out. Don't drop your calories too low. Then you'll see the scale move. Remember that the closer you are to goal, the slower the scale will probably move.

It must be very nice to be able to eat anything you want and never gain weight. You are very lucky. I think pretty much all of us wish that we could do the same thing.
