Having trouble with my 3 month supervised diet.



Recommended Posts

I am 2 months in on my 3 month supervised diet and I've only lost 4 pounds. I have been dieting pretty strictly but I did cheat over the Thanksgiving weekend. I drink only Water and SF iced tea. I can't exercise due to problems with my knee and foot but I thought with the cut back in calories and low carbs the weight would come off a lot quicker than this. What am I doing wrong??/ The Nutritionist didn't say how much I had to lose, she just said lose weight. I bought some of the medical Protein Shakes today so will start those tomorrow and eat just one small meal per day. I hope that helps. I've been using the Atkins shakes but I guess that just wasn't getting it. Any advice would help.

Are you tracking your food on an app like myfitnesspal or something like that? Look at your total day - carbs, Protein and fat. You may find something there.

Maybe replace one meal with a shake to begin with to see if that helps. Get a shake that has 20 grams of Protein and low carbs (like less than 5). I think the Atkins shakes have more carbs than you need, but I can't remember.

Are you able to do any exercise? Like a stationery bike or anything?
