Dear Ivy ~
Don'tcha just
hate it when that happens?
I have to say, yes, this may be your pattern. My daughter has this very same weight loss pattern. Her body just likes holding on to the flabbers and then all of a sudden,
it dumps off a load.
It is very frustrating and yet there are some like betz and dlr2424 (Donna is a slow loser, too) who peel off a pound or two at a time. Little by little it will come off, Darlin'. You could show us your daily plan for review.
There really are quite a few factors that affect weight loss - among them
Height - short people lose slower than tall people
Medications, certain diseases or syndromes - people with thyroid disease, diabetes, and sleep apnea to mention a few have slower weight losses than people who do not have them
Aunt Flo - different points in a woman's cycle can affect weight loss
Stress - it slows ya down
Lack of sleep or rest - the body needs time to repair itself – f you don’t get enough sleep the body withholds weight loss
Timing of packets – don’t wait too long between packets – eat every three hours and do not skip packets – 5 /day
Water slurpage - you need to drink 8 glasses/day
Keep on doing it, Ivy. You are already 30 pounds down – it’s working!
We all want it off faster - like last week.
