Watch the carbs...track them with myfitnesspal or some type of tracking program. If you are working out more than before you possibly are putting on some muscle, so you can expect some gains. Make sure you are getting all your protiens and waters in. More cardio helps too. At about week 3 your body adjusts to the sleeve and holds on to the fat much harder than before. Going as low carb as you can, and getting in all your exercise, is going to get you going again.

I stalled for 2 weeks and things just started moving again as of today, finally!!! I added some yoga and a little more walking to my routine. I also started taking Fiber caplets (go figure) everyday and stopped taking Iron (my doctor recommended this). I don't eat anything with wheat in it, sugar, or beef(makes me sick). I do eat whole milk ricotta, full fat cheese, 2% yogurt, fish, Beans, shrimp, and smoothies made with spinach, fruit and yogurt. I also add ground flax seed to my food as well. Not sure what is helping (thinking it's the exercise more than anything) but I thought it would never end.
