Weight Maintenance - Is This Normal?How to safely maintain your new weight. 6. Rod asks, "I'm having trouble readjusting to the foods that I discarded during my diet. Is this normal? What am I doing wrong?" It's very normal! Again, the trick is to SLOWLY incorporate those foods into your diet. If you've been without a lot of fat and sugar over the last few months, you could experience everything from the trots to a headache if you don't do a slow introduction.
7. Joan has reached her goal weight after losing 254 pounds. It's been a long haul, but she did it! She is 52 years old. Her question is, "I have a lot of loose skin. Will it tone up? And I've got some horrendous stretch marks. Any suggestions?" Joan will experience a bit of toning as time goes by, but not much. Unfortunately, even toning while losing may not have been enough for Joan due to her age and the vast amount of weight she lost. Younger individuals seem to have much more success in this area. A surgeon may be necessary to rid the unwanted skin. Stretch marks can be treated quite well these days by skin specialists (dermatologists & plastic surgeons). A good O-T-C solution is Vitamin E cream daily which may help fade the scarring. OR Navigate by Clicking on Page Below |
