hi everyone just joined the site today after reading the forums for the last couple of days. very good site and the people on it have some good advice so thought I would get registered and put some input into it myself. starting with a question!
been on a 600 calorie diet since the 1st june and from then until the 8th i lost 8lbs and was pretty pleased. but since then...3 days have passed and ive not lost even a pound :sigh:
i dont know what to do. my plan is the stick at this diet and hope its just a hiccup and water retention or something but im getting scared by stories Ive read saying if you eat too little you ownt lose weight cause of "starvation mode"
but in all honestly im very overweight (256lb) and thought 600 calories is more than enough for a kickstart diet. I exercise for between 30 mins and 60 mins every day at speed 3.5 on the treadmill so really thought I would be getting results.
I just want your guys advice on whever this is just a weight loss plateu that I will overcome in a couple of days or if I need to drastically change my calorie intake which is something I really dont want to do.
any comments would be much appreciated cause im feeling really disheartnened right now as I was expecting much better results.
thanks!!
