Too soon for Plateau

JosieRawr

It is. My typical day is as follows:

Am - Shake
Mid AM - Hard Boiled Egg
Lunch - Salad with Chicken breast and vinaigrette dressing
PM Snack - Apple
PM Snack 2 - Cherries
Dinner - Shake

Along with 8 glasses of water a day

Thanks for the help!!

Congratulations of the great start to your weight loss, I would suggest at the very least cutting one of those shakes out n getting some more real food in. I also eat back most of my exercise calories. good luck and again great job!

I think you need to think long term regarding health. Are you going to have a shake every day for the rest of your life? Is this a plan you can follow to maintain your weight loss. You are not getting enough food to fuel your body. Try to eat smaller meals and more often throughout the day. Feel free to friend me or look at my diary. I burn a lot of calories so I eat more than you do. My diary isn't perfect, but it may give you some better ideas how to fuel your body. Best of luck!

My opinion would be, get rid of the shakes, eat a proper healthy plate full of food, lots of veggies, protein and carbs etc. Something your body can actually digest.

Also if you goal is to lose all the weight as quickly as possible you may just as easily regain it when you have reached that point. Consider this whole process more about getting healthy, making good choices with food and exercise, changing the habits that gained you the weight in the first place. If its a life change its for life, a diet is temporary.

Most people here are doing this to be healthy, the weight lose is the added bonus. 1 - 2 lbs a week is a good steady rate and maintainable without staring your body of the food and nutrients it needs to rebuild after exercise.

This!!! Unless you plan on consuming shakes for the rest of your life... start eating real food.
