For 4 weeks I had the cleanest, healthiest diet in my life. Fruits, vegetables, lean meats, yogurt, vitamins. No carbs no salt. I did over 15,000 steps a day, cardio, and weight training. Tons of water. No weight loss. At all.
I read some good evidence that the body will hold onto weight if there is a significant calories deficient for an extended period and that taking a week or two break (eating to maintain) will kick off weight loss again. I did this. No weight loss.
2 weeks of 20,000+ steps a day with less extreme diet (but still significant deficit). No weight loss.
Last year I lost 40 lbs. I know how to count calories. I know how to exercise. I’m only 25. My hormones are fine. I’ve never gone this long without weight loss and I’m getting impatient. Am I just holding onto water?? How do I break this?
