Hesitantly thinking my stall might be broken

Aug 02, 2015

Ok, so I have been dealing with the "3rd week stall" for 4 weeks.  That means a I lost weight 1st week, 2nd week, then nothing for the 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th week.  Now I'm in week 7 as of yesterday.  The last 2 days I have been trying something new, and as of this morning I think I am seeing it work.  

Super low carb (under 10g a day) and pushing as much zero calorie liquid as possible.  I'm also not eating till full.  Basically I end up with about 300 calories a day eating nothing but deli meat, cheese wedges, and steak.  I can substitute the cheese wedge for some greens according to my doctor, but I am gonna try this for a bit without it.

If this is what works then I am going to do it.  Thankfully eating that little is not tough because my stomach is the size it is.  My doc said it will go back to the 1-2 ounce size quickly and easily, even though its stretched to 3 or 4 ounce now.  

If I can get below 300 in week 7 then I will be a happy camper.  I may not get to the 2 pound a day loss again, but I think I can do 1 pound a day.  I am going to increase my movement as well to make sure I am burning more calories.  

And let me tell you!  I cannot get enough sex lately!  My poor husband is pushing me off lately telling me he needs a breather!  Who ever thought that would be the case.  We have always been an active couple.  Been together 20 years, and its almost always been at least 5 times a week.  But lately its like I can't get enough!  It must be the hormone dump.  And he is always all about it.  But lately my appetite has been bigger than his, which is hilarious!
