Need plateau breaker advice

[VWL'sownBeastn'Belle]

Help. I have been doing low carb since may 03. I have lost 40 pounds!!!:sunny: Now I have not lost any weight for a month. I am still maintaining the low carb lifestyle, but looking for a "slump buster" . Any success stories encouraged

Congratulations on your great success so far! :)

Try doing Kiss for a bit. I've been doing it for 2 days and lost 3.5 lbs. :sunny: There was a group here who did it recently with great success. Here's a link to their thread. (http://disboards.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=443946)

Here's a site that explains the concept. (http://www.geocities.com/lajenner/KISS.html)

What do you think you can add to do differently?? Maybe walk and extra half mile or drink 16 more ounces of water a day, or cut your carbs back again. I know too that by measuring, even if I don't loose as much weight, the inches still go off, so I don't feel like I'm in a slump. Good luck and keep trying, you'll be happy with any results.:hyper:

I have had some plateaus along the way, too. At 30, around especially at ~70 poind. This last one was 6 weeks! I hope yours resolves itself much fatser!

Be careful about cutting back too far on fat in your diet. I know I stopped eating salad dressing, cut back on fats, etc, and I think that might have contributed to the plateau. I have heard that if you go too low in fat your body starts to thinks it's starving, and your metabolism goes down.

Don't give up! After that 6 week stall, I have slowly slid into "one-derland" (under 200 pounds) and am still SLOWLY losing! You can do it!
