Debbie, are you eating enough? (10 - 12 times your body weight in calories a day, minimum) Are you drinking your water? (64 oz a day +8 oz for every 25 lbs you want to lose) And lastly, are you taking any supplements or vitamines? A good multi vitamine is required along with a potassium supplement to replace all that is being lost as your body gets rid of its excess water, and a calcium / magnesium supplement. Cal/mag should be chelated and come in one pill with a ratio of 2:1 (333mg cal/ 167 mg mag) I found the magnesium made a world of difference when I started taking it. Take one pill with a meal 3 times a day and one an hour before bed. Magnesium will help improve the quality of your sleep.

Starting a Journal in the "Bootcamp" section of forum would also be a good idea. You can keep track of your food intake and we would be better able to advise and help if we saw what you were eating and drinking.

Cheers,
Nat
