4 Weeks Out!

Oct 16, 2010

Hi Everyone,

Im 4 weeks out today and Im really frustrated.  This is the second time this has happened.  So far I lost 12lbs week one, then week two .. nothing, now week three I lost 8lbs, now Im up to week 4 and I havent lost anything!  What the hell?  Im sticking to my diet as prescribed to the T  .... and yet this is really frustrating me.  I dont understand.  I mean Im happy for 20lbs in 4 weeks, but honestly, I was hoping for 30 !!!!  This feels like a kick in the backside.  Really does.

Ive been back to work for a week now and my incisions are completely healed.  I feel good.  My energy level is slowly coming back.  Much better in this past week than in the first 3 weeks, I was constantly fatigued. 

Ok... here is another dilema
....I know my daily goal for protein is 60-70 grams.  How about Fat and Carbs, what is the limit of daily amount allowed in order to maintain a healthy weight loss regimen?  I am trying to think of different ways to make my food a little more desirable.  I miss a lot of warm foods, the majority of my intake of calories are cold.  The temps outside are getting cold and Im pushing away from wanting cold foods as much.  Here's my dilema.... the more creative I am trying to get, the more carbs things have.  Its easy to keep the fat very low in my diet, its the carbs that are a challenge, so this is where I am puzzled.  Im not going outside of my allowed foods. Not at all.  I did happen to find a site with 101 different ways to make healthy whey protein shakes.  Some of them are a lil high in the natural sugars, but most are great and some can be modified to suit our reduced calorie diets.   http://fatlossschool.com/whey-protein-shake-recipes/
