7kgs (15lb) to go, but it won't leave!

lenatuck · March 2012

Hi,
I have 7kg to go (15lb) which is fighting hard to stay on my body. A few threads and people have suggested to eat at maintenance calories for two weeks then go back down to 1200ish calories a day.
Has anyone tried this? and has it worked? I'm kind of worried to try it and was wondering if anyone had any experience with it

Thanks!

You aren't heavy enough to lose 2lbs per week. You really need to adjust to .5 per week since you are so close to goal. Depending on how long you've been eating at only 1200 calories you may gain weight initially but once your metabolism straightens out it will come back off.
