Can I get over my weight loss plateau without increasing calorie intake and excersize?

Question

I excersize 1 hour each day, and walk about 1:30 hours. I think that's more than enough really. I'm not about to do more. And my calorie intake is low because I'm a raw food vegan and I really don't want to stuff myself with tons more of veggies and fruit when I don't have the taste for it.

I am reading that these are things I do have to do though, in order to lose more weight.

I don't believe that.

Well how then do all those anorexic girls lose weight? I'm sure they don't eat more to lose more weight.

I'm not comparing myself to a diseased woman, I'm just asking if I can continue with my normal excersize/diet plan and get over this weight loss plateau?

Answer 1

try this...
i found this artical called "50 Habits of "Naturally Thin" People
How to get Started:Decide how much you want to loose and see how many calories a day it will take to make it happen by year's end.Then, work into your routines however many of these eating tweaks and exercises you need to achieve your goal.
Slash 250 cal.s a day to lose about 25 lbs. in a year, Slash 500 cal.s to loose 50 pounds.
This is based on a 150-pound person: you may need to cut more/ fewer calories depending on ur weight, age & gender. It also assumes your normal calorie intake essentially stays the same and your weight is stable.

You will need to increase your calorie intake to stimulate your metabolism. Most dieters "go off" their diets for about a week and eat what they want then re-start their diet. Everyone reaches a plateau when dieting, the first few pounds come off relatively easily then you reach your plateau. It will be difficult for you, being a raw veggie vegan as you won't get the carbs and fat needed to jumpstart your metabolism again. Keep exercising and increase your water intake - this may help. Most of all don't be discouraged, keep up the good work. And lastly, you know how anorexic girls lose weight - by binging and purging, using laxatives and whatnot. Definitely not a healthy way to live. You seem to be on the right track with your diet & exercise. I wish you luck.

Honey, if your height is over 5'2", you are perfect or even underweight in you BMI. You don't need to lose weight, and increasing your calorie intake won't really do anything for your plateau, unless you plan on gaining a few pounds, which wouldn't be a bad thing. My waist is like 36: you're a lot better off than I am!

I found the book to be very informative and easy to read.

I've lost 17 pounds in 12 days, I'm just concerned that I'm losing too much weight, too quickly. I will admit I haven't followed the guide exactly. I'm not sticking perfectly to the listed foods and meal plans (but mostly) and doing very little exercise, but the weight keeps flying off.

It clearly works and if I'd followed it exactly I think it would scare the living daylights out of me because of the amount that I'd lose. So thanks again for the information. I've never purchased anything like this before because they are usually full of trash, but 3WD has been a pleasant surprise.

Well you wont lose weight if you don't eat. That sounds kind of strange but you have to keep your energy level up to a certain point so that you still have enough energy to exercise and still function throughout the rest of the day! Find a healthy balance and stay there!

Happy Exercising!
