3 week stalled - suggestions???

pamiam824

you can walk/exercise - drink more - never hurts

but........

stalls happen to all of "us"

newbies - to veterans

got to get used to the stalls - periodically they might/will happen

a stall can last anywhere from a few days, to weeks - even a month, or more ) -hopefully not that extreme

easier said than done but..........

you gotta "ride the wave" - the stall will break, i promise

Would i lie to you???

no way!!!!

Yes as proudgrammy stated...stalls happen. Sad but true....I too have been stalled and my surgery date was 3/19/13. My Dr said this..." Angela, drink that Protein, stay hydrated and move!" He said most generally our stalls are due to our body trying to stay hydrated and the Protein we take in is getting used up due to dehydration....so I'm really working to hydrate and protein up!

Hang in there!!!!!!! You can do this

Thanks guys! I must say I'm not meeting my Protein. Or Water goals. I feel so full all the time. But I'm going to push harder to get my fluids in. Been going to the gym and taking walks in my neighborhood but I'll increase that also and pray for the stall to pass quickly. I've lost 29 lbs so far and just want to keep this ball rolling!!

Proudgrammy said it best - ride the wave. ( good one ). I'm riding the 3 week stall wave too. It's a major bummer. How can one not lose weight while eating between 400-800 calories a day?? I dunno but the weight is bound to come off eventually. Hang in there! I'll be hanging in with you.

I'm with y'all too. Only mine started on week 4. Wednesday will be 6 weeks PO. It's frustrating but I'm just hanging in there. Started couch 2 5k last week and am increasing fluids. Hopefully ill get back to being a loser soon.

I'm stalled again...and trust me it gets to ya and makes you feel like screaming! But I'm not giving up, I won't let it take control over me. That's what is the most important, don't give up on the end result. This page has some of the strongest people here, we took control and made the decision to get healthy....we ALL can do this!!
