Concerned about stall and general slow weight loss

make sure you are taking measurements. The weeks I lose the least is where I really see the difference in inches. In the last week I've lost 0 pounds but I've lost 2 inches from my waist. Not sure why it works that way but you'll see many comment that it works that way for them.

I've also read to expect 3-5 pounds lost per week. obviously we don't lose every week so it has to be an average. You've lost 20 pounds in six weeks that's just over 3 pounds a week so you are on target.

Make sure that you aren't letting carbs sneak back in too much as they will slow you down. track your food on something like my fitness pal to see where you are. I don't use it daily but I do use it for a week here and there to keep myself in check. When I didn't lose any weight last week I started logging. I was shocked to see how many carbs I had let back in and how I wasn't meeting my protein goals. I've adjusted that and am hoping to see a loss this week.
