So it appears that my weight loss has slowed down immensely. But then I calculated the loss from June of last month and and it averaged .9lb./wk loss. Not bad. I am eating (according to app calculations) calories low enough to lose 1.5-2 lbs /wk on top of sticking perfectly to a keto diet this whole time. I doing minimal strength exercises, I’m talking 30 crunches a day, plank for like 20 seconds , and similarly small amounts of a squats, girl push ups, lower abdomen crunches, and pull-up training for one. but it is more than I used to (which was no strength exercises.) have not increased my cardio . My plan is to wait 2 more weeks or so and see what results I get? Not sure what my body is going through or what it needs, (if it’s adjusting in some way or gaining muscle weight) but I don’t want to lower my calories just yet in case of making them too low for healthy functioning. Think 2 more weeks is long enough to wait before I decrease calories? (I’m okay if my weight loss slows to a discouragingly slow pace as long as I am healthy and readjust my plans moving forward so that I can continue to lose weight. I am not yet in normal BMI range and want to at least achieve and maintain that even if my metabolism is shot and I have to eat a small amount of calories per day) the goal is health. And feeling good in my body ie having energy, thinking clearly, pretty much just not hating life. 😁
