That means he should post how he has been eating and what he has been doing for exercise so we can make suggestions.

ok sorry i havent been able to get online in a few days. At the gym i start with just a quick 5 minute warm up on the bike just to get things flowing. After that i lift weights for eh 35-40 minutes maybe hitting arms legs abs etc. Once done there i head down and either shot hoops or play in a pick-up game. go home have a protien shake

i eat a lot of fish, chicken, veggies and fruit. i have cut out all soda's and only drink water

like i said the weight just fell right off then it just stopped... every week i gain maybe 1 or 2 pounds then the next week lose what i just gained

You can add natty pb to your oats, cheese to your beans or fish, and some cottage cheese with lunch to add some more protein. You could even add a shake to the afternoons too.

got to diet section and read "read before posting..." for food and do whatever eating plan suits your training time

Definitely no Cottage Cheese and Pineapple. It's too Fatty and the Pineapple won't digest properly mixed with Cheese.
