Vicki: Atkins says that your waistline is a better indication of weight loss and is really a precursor to the loss on the scale. I have noticed this. It seems like I notice my clothes first, and a few days later, the scale reflects the loss.
You are only on day 6. Try to concentrate on your progress in weekly or monthly time tables rather than daily. The daily fluctuation of weight will drive you crazy! Get a decent scale too. It may be fine, but if you don't trust the results on there then it won't be a useful tool. Good luck! Mad
