I lost 16 lbs of water weight my first two weeks! Then I continued my keto of under 20 carbs (not net, regular carbs) and only two meals a day with all my macros balanced.
In two months I have only lost 4 lbs! I fast like its my job 16-18 hours a day!
I am sedentary though because I have a bad ankle at the moment. Could my metabolism just be slow as molasses?
I eat about 1000 cals a day. I’m trying to do 1200. It’s hard though when you fast this often.
I don’t cheat or do any dirty keto and i don’t even snack any more! Why is my weight loss so slow?
I feel like a freak of nature. Most people would be down 40 lbs by now. I know everyone is different but I’m beginning to feel freakish.
I’m getting frustrated by my slow metabolism. I don’t have any artificial sugars in my diet but I’m wondering by if not working out at all, my metabolism is in slow mo?
I have been on extreme diets on and off my whole life. It used to be so much easier to lose weight. I really need to lose another 20-40 lbs but it seems like all this extreme hard work is only resulting at 1-2 lbs a month! I have cut my calories in half since the start and done everything right and I tracking everything. I don’t know what to do at this point? Just eliminate all dairy and eat only meat and veggies?
I read dairy can spike insulin. Maybe I have an intolerance, which is making it difficult for me to lose. Or I have bad gut bacteria despite all my efforts to correct it and need to do more? I also get constipated so plan on adding magnesium daily. Could this be my biggest issue? Constipation?
I’m in my late thirties. Any suggestions?
