I have been eating as much protein as I was before, I think that
MsReady is right about the dehydration though. If my stall continues too much longer, I'll try more protein. Thanks everyone.

How are you feeling, Annie?? Hope things are improving!

For those that are further out than I am. Did yall have the dreaded 6 week stall? I'm about to go insane.

Stalls certainly are frustrating!! Try drinking more water and see if that helps and make sure you are getting enough protein!! Also, ditch the scale for a week and imagine you've weighed and each day is one pound lighter!!
