Me too! Just over a year- 97 official pounds (106 unofficial) and no weight loss in 2 months- even gained one or two) Very frustrated. Exercising like crazy, eating protein, taking protein drinks....

This happened to me... but after a few months the weight loss kicked in again. If you're eating any refined carbs (white sugar, white flour) get rid of them... otherwise hang in there! It'll start up again.

Hi Maria, I am like you, at a 97 pound loss and 13 months out. We can taste that 100, can't we!!? I lose a pound or two a month but to even get that, its exercising 4 X a week, cutting out some snacks, drinking tons of water...one thing that worked for me (to get the two pounds off) was to shake up my routine-the diet and exercise routine. I stopped exercising for 6 days (not intentionally but had to), and did not eat my normal breakfast or lunch for several days in a row. Well, somehow that worked-this month at least! I know my problem-its snacking. If I cut out the snacking, I know I'd be 10 pounds lighter, but just not willing to give them all up, so I struggle to lose the 2-but thats OK as I am just 7 pounds from goal.
