I've been stalled for the last week, too - ugh. Hopefully it's going to kick back in for this upcoming week!

lol well I'm confident the weight will start dropping again if not next week then the week after... the body needs to adjust it's going through major changes...so my newest found virtue needs to patience... I figure it took 45 yrs to get me here... soooooo I gotta give my bod it's time giving up it's lifelong stash of fat!

Thanks for posting that link to the Probiotics study! I should have been more prepared and posted it with my last video. LOL This was a great video. I always get lots of questions about vitamins. And you are looking great as always ;)

[neecyd63]

Thanks K!  I wanted to know dosages...see the nurse in me coming out so I hunted up that URL... but thank you for bringing it to our attention... good info!

I actually had a weight gain around the same week and relized that it was because i needed to ad fiber into my diet. There are so many reasons this can happen it is great to see you stay postive about it, next week you will see a change again. Hope you have a great week!!!

[neecyd63]

Thanks kimbie! I actually was ok with my wt. We all know there are stalls and in future I'm sure there will be gains... though hopefully not much and not often! lol I did start adding fibre this week also so it'll start droppin again soon I'm sure!

[neecyd63]
