I know what she is going through I have what I call stalls all the time. I don't ever cheat I have no more than 21g per day and have been doing this for 6 months. I have lost a total of 32 pounds and look at others and wonder why I'm going so slow.

There are lots of reasons why these stalls happen and your friend needs to reanalyze what she eats/drinks on a weekly basis. I'm not cheating when I make a LC cheesecake but I know it's going to slow my weightloss down for a week. If I don't drink enough water and I have more than 1 or 2 diet soda's during the week that's another thing that slows me down. None of this is cheating, its just things that slow my weightloss.

I don't think that its all food intake related, I do believe your body does need some time to readjust itself when you are losing weight.

Keep up the good support!
