The issue is the impact long-term, massive calorie deficits have on the endocrine system. Think permanent thyroid hormone dysregulation...resistance to satiety hormones...super-efficient energy storage. Our bodies aren't stupid. If you starve them long enough, they fight back. They'll take energy from all kinds of places we don't want them taking it to preserve essential functions - like breaking down muscle tissue to preserve energy stores. Can be a pretty big deal when the muscle tissues that are left include important ones like the heart.

This is good info!

Yeah this is very discouraging as I'm only four months out and have stalled over a month but I'm not exercising daily and spent the last week consuming to much wine but I was stalling prior.

hello I'm 4 months post op and been stalled over a month next week on the 29th will be 2 months stalled , how much have you lost so far, I'm so discouraged

47 pounds total might be a little more as I weigh in today. The more frequent I eat and move the more the weight comes off but traveling recently didn't help my stall because I ate whenever and drank wine a lot. Now I'm back to my normal routine.

My nut doesn't take calories into account. (I thought 'That is crazy!') Only Protein, carbs and fat. I read that you eat fruit everyday? How much fruit? In my our class we learned that's a big source of carbs that will kick you out of ketosis or fat burning. We were told to eat berries if we really wanted fruit. Other foods to steer away from were root veggies like potato and carrots, corn is a no no, as is onion. Its all about the makeup of the food. I'd love to share the whole list with you if interested.

I am interested in the list if possible. I no longer have access to my NUT due to insurance reasons. Thank you so much... If it would be easier you can email me at tlemieux220@gmail.com.

Please send me list as well...

I'm interested in the list as well. Trying to get back on track. Please send list to loriemt@aol.com. Thank you

So 40 mins of cardio a day? Is it the same routine? If so switch it up! Add some strength training and that'll really speed up metabolism and burn calories!

Are you eating the same diet, if so switch it up. You have to shock ur body. I'm a huge fan of carb cycling. Most days I eat just Protein and meat. When I add in a carb here and there I notice still I lose weight and even more.

You need to trick ur body otherwise it adapts and u get stuck. Find new workouts and new eating plans. Good luck!
