so why can’t I lose any more weight? Been stuck on the same number for about 2 weeks now. I work out every other day anywhere from 25-45 minutes. I drink a low-card slim fast shake for Breakfast and lunch and for dinner I try to have a good healthy one. I’m getting so frustrated and it makes want to give up. I already lost 20 lbs in 2 months. But been stuck on 20 for a while now. This week I took it up a notch and started to work out twice in one day everyday and lift weights every other day. Can anyone help me????

P.S. I don’t have the lap band yet!

It's normal to go on a plateau. I went on one for 4 months then started losing again. Sometimes your body just wants to get used to the new weight before it decides it will let go of some more.

It will take a while before you see that on the scale though. It has something to do with how glycogen is stored in the muscles.

I have a 2 week plateau every month. For me, it's Water weight. I had once, right after I had my third (and most recent) fill. It lasted about a month. You'll be fine. Two weeks, three weeks, even a month is really nothing to worry about. Just keep exercising and following doctors orders.

Did you consider you may only be getting about 800 calories? Slim fasts are what 150-200? Plus dinner of maybe 400-500? Try increasing your calories a little. Have another 100-200 calorie snack during your day to get yourself going again. A couple of slices of turkey breast and a low fat cheese stick. Some tuna salad and a few crackers. Something with protein!!!!!
