Re: have trouble maintaining

March 2, 2004

Hi :

I'm having the same problem. This Thur. 4th it will be my one year

anniversary I've only lost 90 pounds. The lucky thing with me is

that my legs, thighs,arms are skinny. BUT.... belly hangs butt

droops.... I was at 174 for 2-1/2 months. I thought I was going

crazy. One of those plataue????!!!! Two weeks ago I went down to

167 but now I[m back to 170??? Is this crazy or what? Bought the

gazelle... don't do any more evercise... don't have enough time. (2

jobs). I know that if I start exercising again I will loose but, too

trun down. Maybe you are experiencing a plateau??!! I've heard that

if you change a bit the way you are eating maybe more times a day...

you fool your metabolism and you start loosing weight again. When I

went down to 167, that's what I did. Try it.. maybe it works for

you.
