I have finally hit the "dreaded stall." I lost 10 lbs in 14 days... and now I've been hovering around the same scale number for the last week. I thought maybe it might be hormonal, or water retention, or the crystal light I was adding to my gallon of water. I did eat some sugar-free gummy bears here and there. But I have had those things and still had losses every day before. So it would seem my body has hit a new "set point". I'm at one of those spots where my body is very comfortable and would be happy to stay here.
Here's a pic of me today that my son took after church.
I was feeling pretty discouraged. But then I took my measurements. I lost 10 inches all over since I started this round! So that's why Dr. Simeon's book is called Pounds and Inches!
So what's the plan?
Stick to the plan.
I am going to continue the way I am. Cutting out any little "cheats" such as the sugar-free candy and crystal light. Up my water. Maybe do a HIIT workout. A short one. I did 15 mins of that one day and had a 2 lb loss the next day! Gotta shock the system.
Here's an HCG vlogger who has lots of good suggestions for breaking stalls and a list of things to consider as to the cause of the stall.
