Heatherr 149 Posted October 21, 2011 GL! I'm 2 1/2 months post and can't seem to lose more than 10lbs a month no matter what I do. I'm ok with that though. I hope you can find something that works for you, but have fun either way. 1 Lisa the loser reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RickM 1,752 Posted October 21, 2011 If you haven't been doing the low carb diet that's en vogue with many of the programs, you can try that - the extra kick from the ketosis derived from keeping under 30-40 g per day may be of help for you (and it may make no difference, but it's worth a try.) Also, try ramping up your exercise - whether you have noticed or not, whatever exercise that you were doing early on isn't doing so much anymore since you've lost a fair bit of weight and everything has gotten easier. I have to keep reminding myself to keep working a bit harder because while it still feels the same, my heartrate has a much harder time rising to the effective cardio and calorie burning zone than it did 2-3 months ago. Good luck on it - weight loss does slow down over time and you are losing at a reasonable rate if you have patience, but I understand wanting to be down as much as poss for the holidays. 1 Lisa the loser reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
