A little of everything!
Well, at this morning's WI I was 2lbs down...'great!', until I remember I was 1 1/2lbs UP last week , so technically I've lost 1/2 measly pound in two weeks.:cry:
I was googling different 'reasons' a VLCD might not work/stop working, and the only ones I could find were that my metabolism has slowed down so much to match my intake that I'm now holding onto every ounce- i.e. I've gone into the dreaded 'starvation mode', or am very close to doing so. Or that I'm so close to my 'target' weight that my loss has naturally slowed down- which I think is bunkum, seeing as I have over a stone to get to target, and into a healthy BMI range (which I know some of you hold no stock with, but it'd be nice to be there?).
I've had contact with a nice lady from LT over the past few weeks, so I've emailed her with the latest 'development's' and will see what she says/suggests. But my WI this morning hasn't changed my mind about beginning to re-feed in 2wks.
Just thought I'd share...:sigh:
