Plateu?

[Joy1961 134]

How long do they last. The scaled has not gone down in 2 weeks. In fact went up 2 pounds. WTH? Not cheating at all.

Just hang in there I lost 38 pounds in 3 months then for last 3 months I've only lost 12 and I even lowered cals and didn't move for 3 weeks so its slow but that's what u want is slow. Just keep moving in right direction and it will happen

Thanks. I know you are right. Im 9 weeks out and have lost 40 pounds. Well 38 now if you count the 2 pound gain. So i guess i need to be happy with that

2 weeks post op, I stalled for 3 weeks! I had lost 28lbs quickly and also went up 2 lbs and back down.. it just fluctuated for 3 weeks. I started to carb cycle lightly, and it began to finally move. There is a thread on fitness/nutrition area called Carb cycle solution. Worth a try.. doesn't work for everyone but it has worked for a lot.. myself included.. I really love it and plan to make it apart of my lifestyle.. I just changed it a bit to fit myself. I do no carb no carb, and higher carb. Hasn't let me down yet. Hope this helps.

Good Luck to ya!

Change up your exercise might help

I have been stuck at the same weight for about 8 weeks now. I had stopped journaling what I eat. When I resumed journaling, I realized that my calories were not too bad, but my food choices were getting a little (ok...a lot) heavy on the carbohydrates. I think this is what is causing me to stall. I am working on eliminating the carb "creep" (which probably was more like carb typhoon for me), but I am confident that this will help break this plateau. Have you tried looking very clsely at your diet? Maybe you are eating more or less of something like Fiber, carbs, Protein, etc. It doesn't seem to take much to cause a stall, but it also doesn't seem to take much to break one either! Remember... a lot of folks think there is a mental component in all of this, as well. BELIEVE that you will break the plateau and all of your efforts will be for the best! Best of luck!
