Hi all
I reached my goal weight just recently of 58kgs - actually got down to 57.5kg by the time I started my re-feed. The thing is, I put on 2kgs on the re-feed straight up
and that was by day 4 so I went back 2 days and stayed at 59.8kg’s no change. I then decided to go back on the original weight-loss plan got down to 58.2kgs. The last few days I have been eating pretty much to the Cohen’s Plan - few extra bits of cheese here and there and the old red wine and have managed to stay at the 58kg mark. I just can't understand why when I was on the re-feed I put the weight back on at a rate of knots?? Anyone have any ideas? I am 166cm tall and the weight range I was given was 57kgs to 60kgs (I know I was still in the range at 59.8kgs, but it worries me what would have happened if I kept with the re-feed}.
I have decided that over the Xmas period I will continue to stick to the basic principals except perhaps Xmas day and the nights between now and Xmas I will probably have a couple of drinks then come boxing day go back on the original plan exact for 2 weeks then start the re-feed again. Does this sound ok to you guys? I haven't phoned my consultant just yet - As crazy as it sounds I feel like I've let her down after she told me how fantastic I had done. I didn't deviate at all during my initial plan .... I feel like I've gone and lost the plot
Any input will be much appreciated.
