Well, I guess I officially gained a pound. Better than the 6 pounds it said I gained over the weekend. I really don't understand...I work out 4 times a week for at LEAST 30 minutes, I cut out all high sodium foods from my diet, I stopped eating after 8ish at night, I eat fresh fruit instead of packaged 100 calorie packs as snacks, I stopped drinking soda, I cut my coffee intake by HALF, and I drink a gallon (yes, a whole gallon) of water everyday.
I told all these things to the trainer at the gym and even she was baffled. I'm really starting to think I have a problem. I gained this weight at CHRISTMAS and I've been working so hard just to lose these 5 pounds. It doesn't make any sense and I'm starting to get VERY frustrated.
I want to do something to "jumpstart" this weight loss again, I just know better than to think anything will be a quick fix. If I do a fad diet like Slim Fast or something, I know that once I start eating normally again I'll just gain it back. The Jillian Michael Cleanse is looking more and more appealing to me...I feel like there's gotta be something backed up in my system or toxins or SOMETHING.
I'm sorry this is so negative.
Three Things I'm Grateful For:
1. A traffic free morning
2. Finally winning a pair of cute shoes on ebay
3. Friends

Are you counting your calories and tracking everything that goes in your mouth? Many times we eat a lot more than we think, and you can eat too much good stuff and gain at times. If you know you are being careful, you might get your throid checked. If you are taking in less calories than you are burning off daily, you should be losing. Are you losing inches/fat? If you are measuring and losing inches, than that shows weight loss, just not on the scale. I had a friend who went down 4 sizes and the scale didn't move for 4 months. Keep changing things up and maybe you will find what works for you.

Writing down EVERYTHING is the one thing I haven't been doing. I know I should, I just haven't. I started with yesterday so we will see if that helps..
As far as measuring goes, I measured myself a few weeks ago and haven't seen any difference in numbers. There are days I "feel" thinner or smaller in the stomach section..but it doesn't last long.

Just hang in there and don't give up...you might have just hit a plateau. Just keep doing what you are doing (definitely start tracking the food intake though) and once it all catches up to you, I bet you will see a large loss at once...that is how it has happend to me in the past.
