I had a four month stall but since I had decided to stay with what I was doing regardless I stayed with it and then I began to lose size again. I have gained and kept the weight up since 1983. I have wonedered if my body needed to do a lot of healing in eliminating the lean tissue that supported the fat cells. Create new capillaries into fat tissue etc. Then down comes the weight again. The thing I got out of the question and answer session afterwards was that protein could raise insulin if enough fat was not present and that some individuals could have an insulin response with the standard green or low carb vegtables, food for thought.
