From jackrabbit to turtle....
My weight loss started out really fast - I lost 55 lbs in about 3 1/2 months.
Then all of a sudden - screeching halt. I was stuck at 205 for 4 weeks, then got my TOM and was down 3 when it was over, now stuck at 202 for 3 weeks.
This is probably normal but I got really spoiled before when the weight was just falling off me, and not seeing much progress for weeks at a time now is discouraging.
I think I'm doing everything right - water, little or no sugar alcohols, exercise (10 times a week - 7 x aerobics, 3 x weights, plus as much extra stairs and small walks as I can cram in), etc.
One thing I'm eliminating is Splenda in my AM decaff. I may have to eliminate the decaff too (which will royally piss me off) as the weight loss slowed when I added that, but since I added the Splenda with it I'm not sure which it could be.
Inches are pretty static too - hard to tell with the TOM bloating involved, but I don't seem a lot of movement there either.
What's most aggravating is that I'm SO close to being under 200, for the first time in 10 years, and being stuck at just over it is maddening. Plus I get a new pair of motorcycle boots once I crack the 200 mark and I want those boots!!
