Sookie,

I am a S-L-O-W loser myself. It took more than 9 weeks of being on Induction for me to see a one pound drop. However, since then, I have lost weight, but it's still an up and down rollercoaster for me. Some days I'll have dropped two pounds, but the next day I'll be back up one, two or even three pounds. Overall, though, I am still losing weight and inches, so although it's somewhat discouraging day-to-day, in the long run, I'm going to get to my goal.

My advice is to put the scale away for a month, use Fitday to log your foods, exercise if you can and stick with Atkins for at least another month. I wish I knew what the magic answer was as to why some of us are slow losers, but I think if you stick with it, you will be pleasantly surprised.

Pam
