After a month of being on NS and not losing weight, I have come to the conclusion my body weight is where it is supposed to be. I am going to continue following the plan, because I just feel so much better - plus I don't GAIN anything. I know NS works. I had tried every diet under the sun before I started in back in 2006. I went from 215 to 180. Then I maintained that for over a year and decided to try for my "dream weight" of 160. I went back on NS in July of 09, and by October I had reached my goal. The last 2 and a half years I have tried unsuccessfully to lose back to 160. I guess I should be glad I only have gone back to 170, instead of back over 200 pounds. I really think menopause dramatically changed my metabolism. I am not willing to starve to death or to work out more than I already do. I am okay with this, I really am. Yeah, maybe a tiny bit disappointed, but I am healthy. I look good. I feel good. NS is a wonderful tool to keep me that way.
