Hi.
My weight loss has completely stopped.
The last 4 weeks, the scales haven't moved at all.
I lost 16 pounds in the first 8 weeks. 2 of those weeks, I was only eating 700 cals daily approx, as I went through a bereavement, and just couldn't eat a thing through worry nausea.
Now I know that's not good for the body, so as soon as I felt better, I increased to 1150 cals daily. I lost 2lbs in 3 weeks, and the last 4, nothing!
I have raised my daily cals to 1250 three days ago, to see if that helps the plateau effect.
Where am I going wrong please?
I have a quite sedentary lifestyle, due to disability, but do swim twice a week, and walk approx 3 miles. I have also joined a gym, and I began a yoga class yesterday too, so I'm trying all I am physically able to do. Oh and I bought a Bodyblade, for days when I can't get out.
What bugs me, is when I barely ate a thing, I lost weight; now I'm eating a decent amount of cals for my lifestyle, I'm losing nothing.
p.s
I eat a very healthy diet, and have increased my protein intake this week too. My ratio is 25 % fat / 30 % protein / 45% carbs.
Thanks for any advice you can offer
