    It's only been a couple of weeks.

    Give yourself a break. Your body is probably working on healing somewhere else in your body.

    Are you exercising or lifting weights?

    Amberly,

    My RVD said that you need to detoxify before your body will let you lose anymore weight because when you lose weight, it makes the toxins recirulate through your system. You can get stuck because your body won't let you lose anymore if there isn't anymore room for toxins to circulate. You need to continually detoxify by excercising, infrared sauna and lots of water or any other way you can think of. He said that if sometimes a reason people plateau.

    It is a sauna that uses unfrared heat. The infrared goes deeper into the body than just regular heat. It stimulates and eliminates toxins through your sweat. The infrared heat can go in to your skin as deep as 1 1/2 inches. You can also lose from 600-900 calories per 30 minutes in the infrared sauna. Also, the heat does not need to be as high as a regular sauna so you can stay in longer without feeling overheated. The temp in a infrared sauna is typically 120 degrees. I do not know what temp is typical in a regular sauna.
