Topic: RE: Poll Question
I'm down 86 lbs. I haven't done plateau buster, but anytime I stall for more than a week, I increase my protein by 15-20g/day and drink as much water as I can. The last time I did that, I lost 5 lbs. in 6 days.
Exercise is a key to success. I really do enjoy it now that I can move easier. My biggest problem right now is with the heat and dehydration (did I say it's hot here?!?), so I'm only exercising inside at the gym.
Blessings,
Jennifer

I am down 71 lbs. I am feeling great and enjoying life. I workout 3-5 times a week these days. I haven't tried the plateu buster diet, but I do stall a couple of weeks and then lose a few lbs. I am happy with my slow rate, because it is giving my skin time to snap back. I hope it continues to work that way. Only 48 lbs to my ulimate goal! Good luck to you!

I am 2 lbs away from losing 100 lbs. I am so excited about that. I have not done the plateau buster diet, but when I do get in a stall I just increase my water and protien.
as far a excercizeing I ride bike or go for a walk usually everynight. I alternate things. one night ride bike the next walk. That seems to be working for me. On my walks I'm gonna have to quit taking my dog , because I can go farther than he can now. He's just a little chihuahua so his little legs can go just so far and he is pooped out. lol.

I have lost 124 lbs. (started quite high) but have now slowed down. I'm not at a stall or plateau yet but wouldn't be surprised if that starts soon. I was told to expect a slow down about now by my surgeon. But I'm also finding it more difficult to be motivated to exercise--especially weight training. I'm not one of those who learns to love exercise; I do it out of duty. But in summer it is so hot that the last thing I want to do is go get sweaty!
I'm still doing well with the eating, no hunger yet, but I still do better on workdays than the weekends. I try to stay busy but that can throw off my eating schedule. I need to find some more portable foods to take with me on my errands/play time.
Good luck with breaking the plateau.

Bethany;
I hear ya sister! I've been going through this phase of why bother chewing anything because I'm not going to feel great after eating it and it's just not the perfect fuel for my body. So, today, I had a Profect test tube for breakfast, a decaf iced tea with Profect for lunch, some soy nuts for an afternoon snack, and for dinner, 5 chicken and cheese ravioli with homemade pesto (only 2 tbsp of olive oil in the entire recipe) and some strawberries with Splenda on them.
I need to get better about eating. I'm out of town next week for work and I always struggle when I'm away from home. I need to make sure I get my energy up enough this week to carry me through the trip.
Blessings,
Jennifer

Sally;
I've been losing 7-9 lbs. for the last four months. At 21 days into month 7, I'm down 6, so this month looks like it's going to be a 9 lb. month.
My surgeon told me to expect 8-10 lbs./month until I get to goal. I've got 30 lbs. to goal, so I'll be happy with getting there in mid-August or so. I'd really love to be down 100 by my birthday!
Blessings,
Jennifer
