Guest guest Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 WOW Pat, you hit the nail right on its head !!! My " instinctive gut-feeling " about weight-loss plateaus is that they are the body's way of adjusting it's natural set-point downward in a stair-step manner -- First we lose inches & then we " consolidate " at the smaller size, then we lose some more inches & consolidate again at an even smaller size, so on & so forth, as our measurements scale ever downward step-by-step, while building lean muscle mass <:-) And here's another thing I've also been wondering about LifeLift: does anyone know whether LL flex-breathing somehow helps increase BONE DENSITY ??? I have a sneaking suspicion that it might !!! And I'll bet you that solid bones also WEIGH MORE than porpous ones do, LOL Your friend, CC > > Hi Molly and , > > I really can't believe that I have ONLY lost 17 lbs. so far from Life Lift breathing after a little more than 13 months because I am so skinny and dainty!!! That is truly a miracle!!! Wow!! From my appearance now, at 182 lbs., I can just see myself when I am at my goal weight of 130 lbs. looking like I weigh less than 100 lbs!!!!! > > I don't care if I have to wait for three or four years for that to happen, as I know that the longer it takes me to get down to 130 lbs. the better off I will be!!! I am planning to do Life Lift breathing for the rest of my life anyway, so what's the difference if I get to 130 lbs. next year, the year after, or the year after that!!! > > I have always been totally against very rapid weight loss because I know that if you lose weight too fast it will probably damage your body in one way or another. And, unlike most people who are on weight loss programs or who have been on weight loss programs in the past, I am totally in favor of hitting weight loss plateaus. I believe that weight loss plateaus are essential, as they serve as methods the body uses to make sure that everything is working properly in one's body before further weight loss is resumed. > > Love always, > Pat > > > PAT > > You are doing great . I can believe you are skinny and dainty with even > a 17 pound loss . I remember a post Rashelle made a long time ago that > she wore a size 4 i think it was and weighted 150 pounds so those toned > muscles make all the difference . > Molly : O ) > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 11, 2007 Report Share Posted May 11, 2007 Hi , I am so glad that you are starting to realize how inaccurate scales are, not to mention how bad they are for a weight loser's mental health!!! Love always, Pat Re:Weight-loss plateaus & being lean but heavy...
