*~Tina~* Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Ok, I've lost 40 lbs and would like to keep going but I've hit a plateau...I'm thinking of trying a cleanse or detoxification type thing (maybe Shakeology or The Lemonade Diet) and was wondering if anyone has tried these and can offer feedback...or what other suggestions you might have for getting over the hump and moving that number on the scale :D Give me your BEST ideas please! I'm already working out 5 times a week :tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm already working out 5 times a week :tongue_smilie: I vote for taking a break and then starting up a new exercise routine. How close are you to your goal?

FriedClams Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 I have a feeling (after weigh in this morning) that I may be plateauing with you. It stinks!! Are you eating the same number of calories every day? Same foods? I would suggest shaking it up a bit and having a least one splurge (not crazy!) day and then a really light day. I think if you eat the same calories every day your body gets used to it and won't lose more. I will be watching this thread closely!! Great job on the 40 pounds - that's AWESOME!!!

arghmatey Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 I'm just dropping in to say WAY TO GO on the 40 pounds! Also, persimmons and kale are really good cleanses for me. =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarbecueMom Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 I'll be no help. I hit a plateau, took four days off exercise and ate McDonalds. The weight started coming off again. :confused: Congrats on the 40 pounds! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*~Tina~* Posted December 1, 2011 Author Share Posted December 1, 2011 Thank you all for the encouragement! I splurged plenty over the Thanksgiving holiday, but have continued to exercise, even a bit extra, with the goal of maintaining. I don't know how the math works but you know how 2lbs of fudge can translate to 10lbs of weight gain :D. So I was able to at least maintain...but I find it challenging to get back on track and I have been at this same weight for several weeks now...I want to get the loss going again as I still have a good 30 - 35lbs to go to be "close" to the normal weight range and I need to get my mental focus back as well.
