How To Break A Plateau!
Hi!
My friend had surgery in April 06 and she asked me to post this here. She wanted to share this with you guys. I got this off the main board. It's been floating around OH for a long time.
How to break a plateau
#1 - Do this for 10 days to break a plateau
#2 - Drink 2 quarts of water a day
#3 - You must have 45 grams of protein supplement and all your vitamins/minerals supplements each day
#4 - You may consume up to 3 oz of high protein foods, 5x a day
beef
pork
chicken
turkey
lamb
fish/shrimp/crab
eggs
low fat cheese
cottage cheese
plain yogurt or artificially sweetened (?)
peanut butter
beans/legumes
You may also have:
sugar free popsicles
tea or coffee
sugar free soda

broths/bullion
crystal light drinks
#5 - If it's not on the list, you can't have it for 10 days!!!!
#6 - Keep a food diary and try to get up to 30 mins of exercise daily
I'm a year out and was bouncing between 209 and 212 for almost 2 weeks. I started last Monday and now down to 201 lbs. It really works! She has lost 13 lbs. (GO GIRL)
You have to stick with it and NOT eat anything off the menu.
Some people don't agree with this diet so if you feel like you should ask your surgeon first, then do so. I'm NO professional, nutritionist or Dr.
Good Luck in your wls journey,
