Default hyperactive thyroid, and induction weight loss?

hey everyone. i have lost 10 pounds so far (give or take maybe 3, i dont totally trust my scale), but im on day 15 of the induction, meaning the standard 2 weeks is over. im feeling a little disheartened, since i heard and was told that most people lose quite a bit more than that in the first 2 weeks.
first, i was wondering if it is bad to add some more time on the induction? i was thinking i might add 1 more week, just b/c i dont think i was drinking enough water for part of the first week (i thought seltzer was ok, and it is ok to drink, but you still have to drink the required amount of water too).
also, i was wondering if maybe the slow weight loss is due to the medication i am on for my thyroid, tapazole (5mg a day)? any one know if that causes slow progress on the atkins diet?
any help would be great, thanks.

Matt.
