Skeeter, 30 lbs in one month is alot of weight. If you lost no more than 30 more lbs this year, that would be a total of 60 lbs in a year year.I was stalled for months. I did not exercise at the time. I then was forced to climb 2 flights of stairs several times a day since we purchased a new home with stairs. Then my stall broke so I accredit that to exercising. I had hoped to have lost 40 lbs in 2003. However, on any other diet, I would have been thrilled to have lost 20 lbs in a year. So losing 26 lbs sounds so much better.
Your body will always stall in weightloss periodically. I have come to the conclusion that it goes through some form of resting or catch-up period. If we monitored weight gain as closely, I am sure that there would be stalls as it increases, also.
My suggestion is to truly adapt to this way of eating. Whatever exercising that you do will be conducive to your weightloss goals.The weight will come off. You are only 20 lbs away from your goal weight, you might want to move on to OWL and up your carbs a bit. Sometimes raising carbs will cause a woosh. But, the closer you get to goal the more difficult weightloss will be.
