Hi i am new and in need of help
Hi my name is Geri and i am in need of some help. i am not sure what
is going on.. I lost a good 18 pounds since may 1st. I was also sick
with bronchitis which made it easier. I switched medications which
was good too since i now have much more energy and the side effect is
supposed to be weight loss. I am going up slowly on the medication
tho, because of some strange side effects.. anyway, i have now been
stuck at 280 for about a week and cannot budge. I called the Atkins
center and they said well maybe not enough fat and not enough carbs..
so i upped the fat and carb intake and still no movement on the
scale. i am starting to exersize a bit more, since my life has been
pretty much sitting on the couch for the last 4 yrs. really. all day
and night. I rejoined the Y. I went and did some swimming wiht my
son the other night and did 15 min on the tread mill yesterday. I
have to go slow also because of the new medication. can cause
dehydration. I am drinking 2 glasses of water morning noon and night
and every other time i think about it..so about 8 a day. these are
good size. I will give you what i ate yesterday and see what you
guys think..maybe i need to do a fat fast for a week.. i was on anti
biotics for 10 days..thanks geri
