Hello wdgtadkns (tough to pronounce...)

Welcome to this WOL. Not that I am an expert but I keep my eyes open....
It is normal to lose less or simply stall after a short while. Your body initially lost water and is adjusting to a new nutritional habit.
<b>The other thing to note is that, to assess your weight loss, you should really look at your average over 1 week, not your every day changes.</b> Take your weight each day and divide it by 7 for your real weight that week.....

If you bought a book (Atkins, PP, any other one) it should be explained more thoroughly there. If you haven't got a book, I urge you to spend a few bucks (I am sure they are really cheap out there in the States!!!) and get one.

But most of all, do not be disappointed or de-motivated, this is not a quick fix... you are changing the way you are... It takes a little time, like anything....

Well done on the lost pounds though.... Ensure you drink loads of water (min. 2 litres) I always try for 3 at least...

Good luck!

Ciao
