You know, even though the first two week I lost a bit of weight (which is mostly because this is my first time low-carbing... always low-fat before this. so I was never on atkins beforehand) the third week I didn't lose any and kind of gained about 1.5-2 pounds throughout that week. I wasn't doing ANYTHING differently, and was actually being stricter, since I saw the lbs go up a little. But low and behold, this fourth week it is going down again.

I really think it is you adjusting from Atkins. You are going from 20-40 carbs to much more... in one serving. I think once your body adjusts, you'll start seeing it.

Also, even though you aren't losing weight, you aren't hungry anymore are you? Do you feel better than before (besides the weight)? If you are, then maybe that is a sign that it IS working, just you are still getting used to it.

I dunno, just guesses here, but either way, Cindy I hope your day doesn't go as stressful as you think it will!

Good Luck you two!
