Sheryl, it's very normal to have periods where there is no loss, scale or inches. When the body loses fat it needs time to recoup and adjust. While it may seem to you right now that everyone else is losing constantly, it's just not the case. We all have times when nothing appears to be happening. With LC in particular weight is lost in chunks - because what is lost is mainly fat and that is something the body doesn't like to give up.

13 lbs if fantastic. 13 lbs is a sign that while LC isn't the plan for everyone, it's working well for you. Patience is an asset we all need to develop and work on - the goal is sustained fat loss, permanent fat loss, right? It takes time to learn new eating behaviours so that when we do reach goal we know how to sustain it.

Hang tight and don't stress!
