Default Re: Hello!

Hi Afshan, I am very glad for you that you have already lost half your weight, but rather than worrying about stalls you need to start moving up the rungs (you will still lose) so that you will be successful at keeping the weight off once you reach goal. If you stay on Induction till the end, you will not learn the things you need to know about which foods trigger you, which foods, stall you, which foods cause you to gain, etc. and you will be much more likely to be returning here a year or so from now having gained your weight back and more.

With only 26 pounds left to lose, you should be moving up a rung every couple of weeks and learning about the choices you will need to make in Maintenance.
