Stalls STINK!

Seems most of the past few months has been a stall. I lose so very SLOWLY -- one or two pounds, then stall for a month or more! It does get very depressing -- especially when you read posts where someone lost 15 pounds in two weeks, or some such thing! I've tried giving up all of the things that can cause a stall: cured meats, dairy, artificial sweetners, etc., but it does get awfully boring after a while. Tried to increase exercise. Also, most people ask about ketosis and are upset when the sticks change to pink or trace -- I would be thrilled if mine ever showed even a trace -- it only happened once after 3 days on the fat fast.

Oh well, it feels good to vent -- and I know the drill "At least I'm not gaining. It took years to gain it, so don't expect to lose it overnight, etc., etc., etc.".


Any tips you've found that really work?
