Plateau from H***
I haven't been on in a while and my frustration is still the same, I have not lost a pound now in 20 months!!!! THis totally SUCKS. I am exercising every day, I walk an hour every morning with my kids between school then alternate Tae Bo MWF with 30 min on the Gazelle T/TH. I guess I do take weekends off as also working and trying to get kids through school I need a little down time. I feel like I don't eat enough to keep anything alive. I mean it's cheese sticks (light), cottage cheese, once in a while I can eat scrambled eggs and ground beef but any other meat I'm sick as a dog. I still don't do breads that much, I have been eating that heart healthy high protein oatmeal yummy stuff, but what in the world can I do. I can't do protein shakes Barf. Any suggestions. I mean after going through the surgery and not being able to eat and enjoy food anymore what to Do? HELP HELP It makes me want to eat chocolate all day and say what difference does it make, by the way sugar does NOT make me sick like I have been told, so I want to give in to those sugar cravings. NEED SOME HELP !!!!
Don't give into those sugar cravings.... Have you lost inches? Are you measuring? Sometimes we see the inches melting off faster than pounds.
Have you tried Amplify Release protein drink? I had a heck of a time finding a protein drink that didn't make me sick and this one worked for myself. You get it at GNC it comes in many flavors. Maybe upping your protein will get ya back in the loss mode. Or try the plataue diet I don't have it but if ya asked i am sure someone has it. I am a month behind you and I am still losing...but I do not want to lose anymore I am to the point where I am trying to maintain. I was talking with the dietician today due to I keep having low blood sugars and she was talking about Isopure from GNC mixing a little in with some juice etc.. It is pure protein. Are you getting enough B12, B1,Etc???? It sounds like your doing great everything is protein but my question is is it enough??? I figure I eat about 500 calories a day and I have to try to make myself eat more. My protein drink is like a 130 calories per scoop so with the little amout I eat and 3 scoops per day at 20mg per scoop I am way low on calories. I don't know if I helped any but I wish you the best! How is Kim T. doing? I don't hear from her anymore????????? KIm L.
Kim L. Thanks for the input, I believe it is probably a protein issue, it seems that due to the fact I can't eat any meat other than ground beef it's tough to get it in. I did go vitamin world yesterday and got some soy protein isopure I think it is and have a glass in the morning when I get up 20 of protein then a protein bar about an hour later hopefully this will get me going again. Thanks
