Back On Track Together
BOT 4 weeks & scale not moving
I will be 4 years post RNY, 3/2014. I lost a total of 150#''s within the 1st 18 months. My lowest weight was 155. Over the last 18 months, d/t stressful job, let 20#'s creep back on d/t eating carbs, sweets & not exercising. I remedy the stress by leaving that job in October. 3.5 weeks ago I started the Super Shred Diet which is low carb & sugar, similar eating schedule as what I followed early on. 3 meals with 2-3 snacks, lots of water & exercise. I adjust the recommended daily menu to make sure I am eating plenty of protein. I have never strayed with my fluid intake & never drink with meals. I exercise 6 days a week, 30-60 minutes depending on my schedule.
Doing all of this & the scale has not budged in 3 weeks. I did lose 5 pounds of water weight the 1st week on plan. I had all my levels & thyroid checked back in November all right on target. ANY suggestions!!!!!
Today's meal plan below which has been similar to this weeks daily recommended per SS. I stay below 1300 cals, usually less than 1200 per myfitnesspal. I will do 60 mins of IFit program on Treadmill.
B: Low carb/sugar Protein drink (never been a brkft person)
S: fiber one bar or hummus/carrots
I only see breakfast and snack the rest of your menu is missing. I will tell you that I maintain at 1200 calories. I have to drop my calories down to 800-1000 a day to lose 1-2 pounds a week. Usually it is just 1 lb especially if you are around 175 lbs. When I had a regain that took me back above 200 pounds, I could lose about 3-4 lbs. a week but as I got with 20 lbs. of goal it was about 4-5 lbs. a month. Your exercise is right on target, you probably need to adjust your calories, net carbs below 50 and protein around 80-100. No drinking with meals. And, be sure and take your vitamins too! You are on the right track, just need a little adjustment. Good luck to you.
