I Understand Slow... But Really?



Recommended Posts

I am 8 weeks today and down 20 lbs... Was down 23 lbs and gained 3 lbs back. Plus 15 of those lbs were in the first 3 weeks prior to my first stall. I make my Water and Protein goals 90% of the time. I am trying my best to not to get discouraged. Will the weight eventually move faster or will it always be this slow??

My experience was that it eventually moved. I stalled for over a month at about three weeks after surgery. I stuck to exercising and eating as recommended. Eventually the weight started coming off - 12 lbs in the past 2 weeks. I feel better knowing I always stuck with my plan, and it finally paid off!

Keep at it!

Hang in there, it will happen! How many calories are you eating and are you exercising? I went through a two week stall, and read on this forum that if you don't eat enough calories your body will go into starvation mode. As soon as I added more calories to my diet, the stall broke.

Good luck!
