Default Doing lowcarb, weightloss stalled out, any suggestions?
I've been doing Atkins diet since Jan '09. I'm a 41 year old female. I've lost 21lbs so far but haven't lost any weight in the past month and I've NOT changed my diet not one bit. Still eating about 20 grams of carbs everyday. Somedays I may not be eating even 20. I am not sure what to do to get the weight loss moving again. I've got about 80 more lbs to lose. I typically eat a boiled egg and 3 slices of bacon in the AM; I eat sliced turkey breast for lunch with a boiled egg and 1 string cheese, for dinner I eat grilled chicken breast with a salad (which includes bacon bits, 1 boiled egg, shredded cheese, & LOW CARB 1gram Ken's Balsamic Dressing about 2 T). I drink my 8-8oz bottles of water daily too. Sometimes I have caffeine free diet Ginger Ale too. Probably haven't been exercising as much as I should, but I did Atkins diet back in 2004-05 and lost 62 lbs easily in about 7 months and I don't recall that I did all that much exercise then. As I recall, the weight loss was kinda slow at first and then picked up in the last 3-4 months before I reached the 62 lbs. I am just frustrated right now and need to see some results. I have too much to lose to give up now. I'm committed and will stick with LOW CARB, but I do need to get the scales to moving in the right direction. I've NOT gained any weight in the last month, seems to be holding steady on the scale, but it's certainly stalled out at 21 lbs lost. I just want to get over this plateau/stall and start doing better. If any one who's experienced this in their low carb diet could reply to my question and give me some suggestions or ideas that might help me get back on track--I'd be ever so grateful. Thanks so much for your help!!
