Exercise Q - Please Help!

I could really use some help! When I met my husband I was in awesome shape. Then I started conforming to his eating habits and no longer exercised. Well, 13 years and four kids later I am very overweight. On April 12, 2010 I changed my eating to mostly raw foods and going to the gym everyday. Since April 12th I have lost 24 pounds (238-214). I am at a stand still now and have lost nothing in about a week.

If I change my exercise routine will it help boost the weightloss again?

Currently, I am doing: (seven days a week)

-33 min on the AMT (Precor) which is a X between the stairmaster the elliptical. (resistance set at 9/10)
-33 min on the elliptical (incline 6/10 and 5 resistance)
-20 min on the stairmaster

I was wondering since all these machines are somewhat close and/or a mix of each other should I maybe sub the stairmaster for the exercise bike?

Should I add in something else? At home I have a mountain bike, treadmill, exercise bike, bow flex, and all of the wii fitness games/programs.

Any suggestions would be truly appreciated.
 
There are alot of things that cause the weight to stop coming off. Eating too much or not enough, overtraining, or simply not training hard enough are a few. Too many questions to be answered to give you a good theory.

How many calories are you taking in?

Are you in pain or overly sore when you exercise?

Are you exercising at the same intensity as you were before?

You might look around in this forum a bit, this gets addressed alot. That's good news for you!
