Yea at my two week check up I was extremely dehydrated. I needed 4 liters of IV fluids. It almost put me back in the hospital. That's when doc told me to pinch skin on top of your hand an see how the skin falls. It should go back fast if not you need to just hydrate like crazy till it does. Water an Poweraid Zero (no sugar but get electrolytes)...
The best I can tell anyone is Protein, protein protein .... To drop weight minimum half your body weight a day...
Yea sounds like alot but every time I stalled I bumped my protein levels an that seemed to jump start my metabolism again.
Just some thoughts....
