Re: Can you plateau while you fast?

I completly feel your confusing. i weigh 165 lbs now and have been fasting for 3 weeks now and have plateaued at 165 forever.... the first 2 weeks was great and got to 165 but for the last week i've stayed at 165 and some days, as perplexing as it sounds, i've actually gained weight. how the heck is that even possible? anyways.. i was wondering if anyone else has experienced weird plateaus liek this... i figure if i stay at it the weight will start comming off again. my mom said somthing weird to me- she said that i might have a bad thyroid or sometign because she does and it could run in the family.. that realy through me off guard. I thought about it and it would make sense since i eat healthy but still remain rather heavier than i should be... i also told myself that maybe that is why i haven't been losing weight... maybe my body is concentrating in fixing my thyroid and will get to clearing away fat a little later. could the healing process actualy be halting rapid weight loss? my tongue started off sooo white from toxins and i had a bad taste in my mouth for over 2 weeks.. bairly today i noticed its pretty much all pink again and doesn't taste bad at all- doesn't that mean that most of the toxins are out of my system. iono.. some advise would be nice.

PS: my starting weight was 180 so i suppose its a good amount of weight.. but i stll find it weird to stay at ONE weight for a whole week....
