The cause of this plateau is undetermined. I’m sure there’s some scientific term for it if I Google hard enough. My goal for the next few days is to poke around online and see what I can find on the subject and what others have done to kick start the weight loss again. If any readers have encountered similar issues, I would love to know what you did to get past it!
Anyhow, I know my plight is not an uncommon one. I also know I need to recalculate my daily caloric requirements, since they no doubt have changed after losing 25 pounds.
So, it looks like I have some serious work cut out for me in the coming weeks. But hopefully I’ll have some good news to report the next time I check in!
That's me on the right...
Blahahaha! That graphic is funny.
ReplyDeleteOkay, well, my cousin (a health buff who recently lost a lot of weight) says that it's important to have a cheat meal... not a cheat day, but one meal in which you eat whatever you want so you can shock your body. Maybe that will help with the plateau?
Either way, you are doing awesome, T!
Miss you bunches.
Thanks, querida! I'll try your cousin's suggestion and see what happens. At the very least, my taste buds will be extremely happy! *hugs*
ReplyDeleteI spent a couple of years with a nutritionist. Plateau's are not necessarily bad. They help your body get used to its new weight, so you can maintain it and not get your body thinking it wants to gain it back. Keep doing what you were doing and you'll be losing again! Good luck.YOu are doing great!
