I posted a couple of weeks ago, but I know how much trouble the boards have been. So I thought I would try again!
I am just past the half-way mark (54 lbs lost) to my goal weight, and from what I have read, it's supposed to get harder, take longer from now on. That was a depressing thought!
But this was a surprise! For 4 days now, I have lost about 1/2 lb each day - another 0.4 lbs today! I wonder how long I can keep that up?
What am I doing different this week?
Starting to exercise by walking the dogs around the block, and a bit more each day - maybe 10-15 minutes walking?
Drinking up to 36 oz of water/day, along with my regular liquids - which was about 48 oz/day.
Added a vegetable to my mostly meat dinners - Savoury Braised Carrots and Beans or Mashed Cauliflower with Cream Cheese/Cheddar Cheese and Bacon
Perhaps I wasn't eating and drinking enough?
It is certainly possible tht you weren't eating enough. could be that your healthier habits are helping your body give up water weight. I always say that drinking more water leads to morexerciseduet to the extra bathroom visits...SJ
Gotta do it. Gonna Do It in 2012!
Probably, you launched some mechanism in your body which boost your metabolism. I think, it's not a problem, But if you afraid, better visit a dietologist or read articles on this site
