Default HELP..stopped losing!

Hi, just completed week six. I'm 5'9" and my starting weight was 192.
Have been dieting for six weeks and I'm stuck at between 177-179lbs for
the last two and one half weeks. Wondering what the problem is. Have
back, hip and foot pain, so walking is the exercise I try to do. Walk
daily, but not very fast. Too painful. Walk about 30-40 minutes.

Not drinking the water like I should, so need to get back to that. I'm
trying to eat healthy. Keeping a food diary, watching calories. I
average about 1100-1300 calories daily. My goal weight is abt 150, at
least at this point. Am I eating too many calories or too few? Any
suggestions?

Other question regards breadmaking. Have finally figured out the bread
machine I bought and I'm making whole wheat, rye and oat breads. Only
have one or two slices daily. First, could this be the problem? And
secondly, how do you get the maximum amt of fiber in a breadmaker loaf?
On reading some of the store bought loaves, they sometimes have 4-5
grams, while my recipes book only lists abt 2 grams as the most.


Any ideas.
Sarah

Thanks
Sarah
