Need some support/advice please

Had my last weight check on June 19th..next weight check is July 2 with Medical Director and thought wasto clear me for surgery. I have finished all other components except weight loss. I needed to lose 6lbs by July2nd.

First of all, my rational mind says, 6lbs in 10 days is a bit extreme...but I really thought I could do it.

I am doing 2 protein shakes a day, fruit and some protein and veggies for dinner. Limiting carbs as much as I can. I am an exercise crazy girl, over 20 miles a week through walking, spinning, elyptical etc. I haven't lost anything, nothing, zero, zilch in 1 week. I have been a bit constipated, have taken fiber supplement and put fiber powder into my water. I have 1 week to go!

Any thoughts?

Thank you

I am by no means an expert on weight loss, but increasing your water intake may help. I had to lose a bunch of weight really fast once and I noticed that the more water I drank, the more weight I lost. Hope this helps. Good luck to you.

 

Sorry, no advice, but did not want to read and run.

I am averaging 72 oz to 96 oz a day...I want to shoot for a full gallon!!!

I would add some Mirolax to water and work on the constipation as getting rid of that excess weight will help and help you feel much better.

Go high on protein and add some veggies. Stay away from anything with sugar right now, incuding fruit. Don't do any refined carbs. Gets lots of water in.

Just a quick question for "Kat Kat".... what are "refined Carbs?"  and how are they different from carbs in fruit? Thanks....

Thank you...spoke with the NUT today and she said focus on the protein at breakfast and lunch in the form of shakes and then eat only chicken for my protein at night, no beef right now (I don't eat any fish!). So...I will continue on!!
