Is it possible...that I'm not eating enough protein? Since August 22nd, I've lost just 4 lbs. I don't understand why. I do not eat rice or pasta; two or three times a week I may have 1/2 a slice of toast (wheat or rye) with butter with over easy eggs, but any other carbs are negligible such as in nuts, cottage cheese, HWC, fruit two or three times a week, and so on. What do you think?

Here are my numbers for today from MyFitnessPal.com. Please weigh in with your thoughts (yes, pun intended *grin* ): (the "daily goals" are not accurate. I'm having trouble adjusting them as it's based on a percentage instead of a flat number.) Also--I'm 5'10" and a large woman.

Do you post on the Bites & Vits daily?  It may help you to see what others are eating.  Have you measured?  Your body could be just catching up in a little stall.  Check your measurements.  You can also change up and have a very carby day to see if that tells your body that food is plentiful, still get your protein in though.

One thing you can eliminate is the fruit.  Lots of carbs and no real food value.
