Losing my mind

[New Joy 0]

I am getting so discouraged.

I can't break this stall. I have been between 216 and 218 for TEN WEEKS. WTF?? WTF??? WTF??

I am exercising daily---10,000 steps even if I have to march before bed.

I am eating about 1100 calories a day with my carbs around 100 and Protein around 100.

I just don't have a clue what to do anymore......

I told my hubby I am tempted to do a liquid diet for a week but is that really the answer??

I am at 7.25cc and I am not hungry all the time but my body doesn't make me stop eating...I have to be mindful of every bite.

I even am beginning to wonder if I should cut out dairy.

I just want to cry.

I vote no on the liquid diet. If that were the answer I could have saved $10K and just did that!

I think your body has gotten use to the 10K steps and doesn't consider it exercise anymore. Your probably going to have to do something that gets your heart rate up. Dancing, swimming, biking, etc. I reached that point too, where walking just wasn't doing anything for me. I started running with C25K and I am losing slowly (1 pound every 10 days or so) I think that this band life is a progression, as soon as you think you have it figured out, you have to change something.

Good luck.

I would suggest shaking things up. eat 800 calories one day and 1200 the next. whenever i stall, i find it is because i have fallen into an exercise and diet rut.
