Slow Weight Loss

I am getting very discourged. I am six week out and have lost 32lbs, however, I lost 20 lbs the first two weeks so that means that I have only lost 12 lbs for the last 4 weeks!!! Is this normal??? I still can't wear a size smaller clothes! I feel great and have only dumped one time (last night). I am thankful for the 32lbs that I have lost but darnit I am dy for it to go away! Any suggestions??? Lorrie

Hey Lorrie, You're about the same place I am, based on time anyway. I lost 15 lbs the first two weeks and it took me another 4 weeks to lose the next 10 lbs. I realized I wasn't eating enough protein or drinking enough water. I upped my intake and my weight loss started back up. I've lost 10 lbs in the last 10 days. I WAS exercising until I got an in infection in my leg from an ingrown hair. YEEEEEOUCH! They lanced it and have put me on liquid Lortab and Bactrim. It's on the inside of my thigh so it make it IMPOSSIBLE to do anything other than upper body work, plus I can't drive on Lortab. Check you water and protein intake, make sure you are getting enough. Pam C and I both hit a stall at the same time and you're just a week behind us. -Pam

Hey lorrie, don't worry about the slow weight loss , I went nearly 7 weeks and didn't lose a drop! On average I've lost over 10 pounds a month, im almost 10 months out and I've lost 113 pounds and im still losing very slowly I might add, but im losing. Crystal

Thanks Crystal! You look really good in your picture. How much protein & water do you get in on an average. LoL Lorrie

Thanks Pam. It's good to know that I am not alone. I find it very hard to get all of the protein & water that I need while working. Smoothie King has been great help on the protein. Now the water............ If I could only guzzle it life would be good. Thanks Again Girl! LOL Lorrie
