Mandypads 10 Posted August 3, 2015 Hey guys I am new this. I was sleeved june 5th 2015 and have lost 43lbs already. I am currently at a 2 week plateau. I am staying postive and continuing to work towards my goal of 110 lbs lost. I know this doesn't come overnight and I am embracing each change and every obstacle. I have seen how postive you all are and love the honesty. Any tips on how to get past this plateau is appreciated and I look forward to reading your stories and comments!

OKCPirate 5,323 Posted August 3, 2015 It's a stall, great job so far, your body will catch up and you will start losing again. These things happen. You working out yet? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LoreLu 79 Posted August 3, 2015 Keep up the good work! Keep your Water and Protein intake up - the Protein so you don't lose muscle mass and the Water because it facilitates the conversion of fat back into by-products the body can use for energy. Hang in there - the pounds will start to drop off again! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jane13 2,256 Posted August 3, 2015 @@Mandypads - I hit a stall about every 3 to 4 weeks. I may not lose anything or barely a pound. Stay focused, hydrate, Protein & watch carbs. Measure yourself or try on old clothes for incentive - could be you are losing inches, not pounds at the moment - it happens. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mandypads 10 Posted August 3, 2015 I started working out a week ago swimming mostly and cardio. The Protein and Water has been a challenge so i started keeping close track on it, hopefully that works. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alexsisv 139 Posted August 4, 2015 Do you have a scale that measures your body fat? That can be helpful when you stall -- you might see the % body fat drop. You can work through the stall. Just be patient and maybe stop weighing so often? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
