Hi Everyone!
Does anyone have any good tips to get off a plateu? I've been on it for like 3 weeks. I've been trying so hard, I can't seem to loose anymore. do you think I should increase or decrease my calorie intake? Thanks so much!

I heard that if you switch up ur excersize ruitine that would help. Like if you are walking/jogging 3 miles a day, try walk/jog 2 miles and try a video tape like tae bo or pilates or something. Good Luck!

marielle's suggestion might work i dont know i havent tried it but what i know for a fact if you increase your workout you will get off those annoying plateaus like if you do thirty minutes a day do fourty five or something like that just increase the time or the intensity or both.. well good luck tell me how you do ...

increase you calorie intake like 300 or 200 calories more for a few days (dont weigh yourself during that time) and then get right back on your diet. it will give your body some confusion on how much food its going to get tomorrow! with the extra calories in your diet, it will assume it will be getting more to eat, so it will burn more. when you get back on your normal diet, youll continue to lose again because your body is convinced you will be feeding it more, and SURPRISE! you dont! good luck!
