[quote=Anonymous]Age 44, starting weight was 160 and I successfully lost 10 lbs over 3 months with diet and exercise but I can’t seem to lose the last 5-10 lbs and have not dropped any weight now in 3 weeks despite not changing anything with the diet and exercise that helped me dropped the 10 lbs in the first place.

I am eating pretty clean (no added sugar, healthy carbs like sweet potatoes or quinoa at lunch, no alcohol), I eat 1,400 calories per day and log/weigh food to be sure, and do light strength training 3-4x per week plus walk for 30 mins 3-4 times per week.

I lost ~3 lbs per month steadily and now nothing. I am not sure what the answer is at this point but seems crazy to have to cut my calories further because that won’t be sustainable for the long run.

I should also add that most of the weight has come off of my face, arms and legs but I really want to slim down my stomach area, which now looks even more prominent since the rest of me is thinner. My clothes are looser with the -0 lbs I lost but I haven’t gone down a size.

Any tricks for getting out of a stall? Or is restricting food more the only answer?[/quote]
