  1. Believe me, Bon, I've had stalls too. I seemed to yo yo around in December and January but really didn't lose anything. My NUT told me to switch up and eat up to 30 carbs a day for 2days and on the third day, eat up to 100. At first I had a slight gain, but then it seemed to kick in. Also, we joined a gym and started doing Water aerobics about 3 weeks ago, which has really helped. I started at 410 and now I'm 310, so I've got a long way to go and I know the next 100 will be even harder. We can do this. One meal at a time.


  2. You don't say what your starting weight was. My highest weight was 410. My NUT has told me many times I need at least 1200 cal but closer to 1400 to lose the weight. I've struggled w that for a while but finally gave in. Also started exercising. I've lost 4 lbs in 6 days. She said less CSS for my weight is too little and that my body goes into a starvation mode when I go under that for very long. I was stuck this sat tie for almost 2 mos because I didn't do what she said. Also, she told me to fluctuate the number of carbs per day for a while to shack it up. Finally the lbs are moving again.


  3. My NUT didn't want to give me a number but finally realized I had to have a number :). She told me at least 1200 but closer to 1400 for my body size. I struggle with getting that many cals because I feel guilty. She tells me I would have lost a lot more if I would eat enough cals. I am now trying to hit at least 1200. I also drink at least 64 iz of Water, but usually hit 80+. I shoot for at least 85 g Protein as well.
