3 months out and weight loss has slowed down!
I am just 3 months out as of tomorrow. When I saw the Nut last month for 2 month checkup she said I was ahead of schedule and she added in some additonal food. I lost 50lbs in first 2 months and now I have only lost 7 lbs this month. Is that normal for it to slow down so much? I am already at my 50% weight loss thing.
My Nut is out of town for the week so I thought I would see how everyone else's experience was with the hitting the 3 month period. I am not complaining, mind you! I am thrilled with what is happening. Just wondering if this is normal ....or if I am doing something wrong. I get all my protein in, at least 75-80 gms a day, water at 80 oz a day and then my little meals.
thanks all. LOL, I have never lost this much and here I am complaining... oh me.
Wow. Most people don't lose 50% of their excess weight until about six months out. I would think that, when you've been losing so exceptionally fast, it would be normal for it to slow way down at some point.

For your starting weight to be only 220, losing 57 in 3 months is amazing! Way to go!
