Hi Britgrl,
For me, I was able to totally ignore calories and focus only on carbs. At first during induction I ate way more calories than I had been eating, but this was offset by the water weight loss. Then, as I continued to watch only my carbs, I noticed that I simply wasn't as hungry. This lead to a drop in calorie intake, and I started clipping along at about 1 to 2 lbs loss per week until I hit my target weight.
Maybe, you should ignore calories for a week or so. Just eat when your hungry, and keep your total carb count down. Then after a week of this check to see if your calorie intake hasn't naturally dropped to a level that will result in stead weight loss. Just a thought.
Regards,
Dan
