Scale finally moving again.
Sounds like you are doing what you should be. The weight should continue to come off for quite some time. If you go through any kind of stall or plateau, just keep measurements of yourself and you'll find that it's just not showing on the scale. You could also up the exercise if possible and a little more water and protein definitely wouldn't hurt.
I've been struggling too with a barely moving scale. I increased my protein to at least 80, decreased my carbs to 40ish, and drinking a lot more water than I was. I've been exercising 3-5 days most weeks, just signed up for another class and will walk on the other days. The scale did finally move the other day (1 lb - whoopie). But as long as the trend is down, I guess I can't complain.
How many carbs are you eating? My Dr. said I can have up to 200. I've had as much as 80-90, but I think it's too much for my body, so I cut back. Hoping to be in the 140's by the end of the month. I've been in the 150's for 7 weeks now.

you're a lot further out than me, but I don't eat any where near that many carbs. I get less than 20 in a day.
