Plataeu

I'm a little disappointed that I've have not lost any weight in two weeks. I have not changed any eating habits or stopped exercising, but still I'm hanging at 194. I hope I can break this cycle soon. ~Dondi 265 before surgery 233 surgery day 3/16/04 194 for the past 2 weeks 130 GOAL

You and I had surgery the same day. I have only lost 27 1/2 pounds as of today.I had a 5 week plateau, where I lost absolutly nothing. So I think you are doing great......

Up your water and your protein and it should start back up. your body thinks you are starving it.

It will start again. The same thing happened to me. Just keep doing the right things and let a little time pass. I find that getting in more protein and less carbs helps me get a start again. Hang in there. You are doing fine. Joy -43

Dondi, Your weight loss is great! I've stalled out several times, but it always starts up again. Sometimes after I change something a little, like upping the protein or water, the weight loss kicks in again. Connie

I know how you feel... I was on a 3 week plateau and it really is disheartening. I upped my protein (ALOT) and I also cut out ALL chips of any kind. even the "good for you" chips like soy chips or sun chips or baked tortilla chips (WAS my weakness) that kick started my weight loss again... slowly... but it was comming off. I upped my exercise a bit. Not that I was doing anything strenuous, I was just doing light walking and now I will go out and play with my son and play tag and run around or kick ball or baseball all that good stuff. He is five so hes quick and keeps me going And MAN am I beat after hes done with me You have a great weight loss so far. It will start again dont you worry (((hugs))) you hang in there...chin up!
