:Hi Everyone

I'm Vita and new to the community. I'm a 40 yr old workaholic that needs to lose another 45lbs before reaching my goal.
I am currently working out each morning, 6 days a week, 20-25 min. cardio (elliptical or treadmill)-doing interval training and sometimes circuit training. The balance of my workout time is dedicated to weight training on a different muscle group. I eat approx. 1000-1400 cals. per day just depends.
I recently lost about 30lbs and droped to dress sizes, but have reached the dreaded plateau! Can anyone give me any advice on what to do?

Congrats on your success so far!

I would suggest boosting your calories. You're eating very few for all that you're doing. Make sure your interval training has you really pushing hard too. As you get more fit, your body gets more efficient, so you have to push harder to get results. Watch your stress levels too. If you're working too hard, stress hormones can keep you from losing weight.

Good luck on breaking through that plateau!
