Thread: 10 day stall ! Someone PLEASE help !

What exactly are you eating? Are you using lotions, oils or anything like that you aren't aware of? That will cause you to not lose weight...are you eating all your protein? Drinking enough water??

You mention losing almost 2lbs a day until this.....I don't know what day you are on, but losses like that will be balanced out with a stall so that your avg daily loss is between .5 and .75. Hang in there....losses will start back up as soon as your body has caught up to all the weight you've lost to date.

I've seen people suggesting having a bit more protein and cutting out the melba toast/breadsticks. Also cutting out the fruit to see if that helps.

I don't know if any of these things work but it could be worth a try.

For what it's worth - I had a long stall at the end of P2 that about drove me crazy. I couldn't figure out why - but suddenly my losses just stopped. I had hoped the stall would break before I finished the round, but it never did. I was so disappointed and felt like I had wasted two weeks. However, now that I'm well into P4 I can tell you - I stabilized like a rock on P3 without ever having to do a correction day. As much as I hated that blasted stall - I think that's why I had nooooooo problems on P3 and beyond. I may end up doing another round later because I didn't lose as much as I'd hoped, but the 20 pounds I did lose have stayed OFF. And for me, 20 pounds made a HUGE difference.

I haven't used any lotions/makeup etc etc

My meals:
Same diet except for my protein I use raw vegan protein powder.

Yes I was losing 2 lbs a day average then I stopped gained a few then nothing.

As far as water o I love it! I drink about 6-8 16.9 oz bottles a day not includint the extra bottles for the protein powder.

I don't mix veggies, I don't use any sugar substitutes, I don't stray off the diet as I mentioned before in other posts I am actually very happy eating 200 cals and am VERY full around that point. Makes me sick to eat all 500 cals but I make myself.

I'm so disappointed

I have 10 day stalls in every round. One thing to keep in mind is that most women lose about 25-28 pounds per round. So you were losing fast and now your body is catching up. What have you been eating though? We might be able to pinpoint something to try. I would cut one fruit and eat an extra serving of protein in its place and see if that breaks the stall.
