Lost 6lbs, now im gaining it all back!

As you can see from my sig, I lost 6lbs in my first month. I'm about to finish my second month, and I've not shed anymore weight, if anything its going back on!

Im doing exactly the same as I did when I started, so dont know why this is happening :(

First of all, congratulations for your weight loss. 6 lbs in 4 weeks is excellent!

Second, are you sure you're doing EXACTLY the same things? Like, are you still weighting ALL of your food? Writing EVERYTHING down? Drinking loads of water? Having your 5 a day? Have enough proteins and fat? Having the RIGHT type of fat (e.g. nuts, seeds, oily fish)? Doing exercise? Are you keeping at least 48 hours between a heavy/heavier meal and your weigh-in?
 
Sometimes I think that you just have to put in a bit more effort to 'get over the hump'
 
You might also want to try to vary the points that you eat. You could try the wendi plan:

Pick any day for your Day 1. Just ensure you have at least 48 hours between day 3 and weigh-in. Day 3 can be weigh-in day if you weigh-in in the morning. Then eat your points as follows:

Day 1: target +5 to 7 points
Day 2: Target + 1 point
Day 3: Target +15 to 20 points
Day 4: Target points only
Day 5: Target +4 to 5 points
Day 6: Target +2 points
Day 7: Target points only.

Target means your Daily Points.
If you follow this exactly, you'll use 27 -35 of your 49 weekly points. So if you go a little off any one given day, you'll still remain within all your points for the week.
