Well, I have been on this plateau for so long now that I realize I am just maintaining. It is time for me to make a change in order to lose another 30 pounds and reach my goal to lose a total of 80 pounds.
Thanks to all the comments and advice from my much appreciated readers, I have decided to make my change in the form of the kinds of foods I eat. I won't be doing anything too drastic, but it will hopefully be enough of a change that I will see the scale start moving again.
I will continue with my long fasts on Sundays and once a month doing an extra long fast of 60-72hours. But I will change up my eating a bit in the following way.
MON - WED: REDUCE MY CARB AND PROCESSED FOOD INTAKE.
MENU:
SALAD: Spinach, brocoli coleslaw, cucumber, sesame seeds, pumpkin seeds, feta cheese, egg, chicken, avacado, dressing.
FRUIT
NUTS
CHEESE
SNACK: Carrots, Cucumber and hummus
THURS: Add in a small amount of carbs
VEGGIE STIRFRY: Broccoli, Cauliflower, Snap Peas, Zucchini, Carrots, Chicken, Beef, Noodles
FRI - SAT: Enjoy Dinners out with no restrictions but try to keep in mind my goal and not overdo anything.
I will try to post some pics of my food tomorrow. I am looking forward to this! I think it should help. Wish me luck!

I think it's really admirable that you're willing to experiment with your way of eating. I know you've heard it before from other people, but for so many bodies, lowering carbs does wonders for getting the scale moving. Many wishes for very good results!
ReplyDeleteGood luck Jenna!
ReplyDeleteLowering my carbs have helped me a lot, both with weight loss and with feeling fuller since I instead eat a little more fat.
Your food choices sound wonderful!! I've been eating an apple a day for some time now and my body actually craves one if I don't eat one. ((hugs))
