Is Anyone...

...ready to try the various plateau buster-diets that are presented on various boards, especially the main board?? I feel stuck, or slow, and am contemplating trying one of these busters to see if they will work. I have increased my protein immensely and still nothing. Has anyone done this yet, or felt the need to? Beth -90

I haven't tried them, but when I have a 2-3 week stall I find when I increase my exercise and fluid intake things tend to get moving. I would try that first and see if it helps. I have read that it is normal for us to slow down, and for our bodies to take a break every now and then. Margo 334/313/238/160

I'm all for the exercise first also

but here's the thing, I do exercise and I drink at least 2qts of water/koolaid a day I guess its that time my body is playing catchup and/or resting

I find I slow down & catch up. Especially the 2 weeks before my cycle...i slow down. The week of, and the week after...I catch up. I just keep doing what I'm supposed to and it all works out. Christie

Well I was at GNC today and the girl there happened to be a WLS patient herself (2 yrs out) suggested a colon cleansing thing that they carry since I admitted that I had not pooped in a few days. LOL! I am half tempted to try it to see if that helps break the plateu I am on.. of course I am gonna talk to the surgeon about it tomorrow!
