Plateaus

Hi you wonderful MN's, do any of you have any advice for getting out of a plateau on SW? I am following everything to the letter, have upped my water intake, have reduced my syns to between 5 and 10 a day, lowered my portion sizes to account for my losses, but I still cannot shift the last 12lb.

I know that weight loos slows down, but was wondering if any of you have been in this position and if so what took you out of it? I am considering having a week 'off plan' taking the gain at weigh in and then going back to it to see if it shifts?

I have lost 2st 4.5lb since beginning of August, so nice and slowly and sustainable... I really want to shift this last 12lb to target!

I'm in the same boat. I count calories but I have been on SW in the past.

I've also lost a similar amount and have 10lb to lose. I've been plateauing for weeks. The only thing you can do, I think, is up your exercise level. Some people also find routine or menu change helpful.

Have you tried SP days, or just having more SP meals on normal Extra Easy days.
Don't know if Fast Forward is still a thing: you could ask your Consultant about it as a last option.
Have you spoken to your Consultant about this final struggle?
Maybe complete a SAS log?

@florriepeck thanks. I tend to do SP anyway as a lot of carbs don't suit me! I have spoken to the consultant but she's adamant that it'll show next week. I've upped my speed and the home scales are showing losses now so fingers crossed!
