miko 21 Posted March 23, 2013 Hello So I had my 6 month check up with my doctor and have learned that I lost 76% of my excess body fat . I have lost a total of 100 lbs and need 35 more to go . I am noticing that I'm not losing as much weight per week as I have in the past and feeling more of an appetite . I have made changes to my diet , like eating more nuts and fruits and less meats but still am not dropping the pounds like in the past . Any suggestions anyone ?

ProudGrammy 8,322 Posted March 23, 2013 I lost 76% of my excess body fat . miko losing all that body fat, weight!!!! thats "huge" you started 135 lbs overweight - so the initial weight loss went a little quicker - or put it the obvious other way, since you don't have that much to lose now - things are slowing up a bit sure, i tell tell you to up your Protein, or lower your calories, or maybe even raise your calories - get plenty of excercise - drink more Water but..........you know all this!!!! you've been so successful you will continue to do great keep up the good work congrats "God Grant Me Patience Just Hurry Up About It!!!"

VSGKirk 855 Posted March 23, 2013 Miko, WOW! 100lbs!?? That's awesome - very inspiring for someone like me, for sure Advice, yeah... Give yourself a nice big ol' pat on the back and don't sweat the last 35lbs. They'll come off when it's their time. Focus on how amazing you must feel and look forward to a summer filled with many more fun things to do than in the past. Great job, buddy! 1 ProudGrammy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miko 21 Posted March 31, 2013 Thanks everyone . It hasn't been easy but yes it's been well worth it . I just hope these last stubborn pounds come off soon as I'm stuck and haven't lost a pound for 2 weeks now . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AChristian 112 Posted March 31, 2013 My doc told me to go back to my preop diet for 3 days when I started noticing hunger 2 years out. He was right. That's all it took. I noticed my original restriction all over again. Worked like a charm. 1 miko reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
