If you are only on week 2, you really really should not have any shakes or bars in any case...

Sticking to induction is important to jump start the process.

Also, there are some common reasons that people get stalled:

1. Not drinking enough water
2. Not exercising
3. Not getting enough calories
4. Not getting enough fat - try using fitday, and aim for about 65-70% fat, 25-30% protein, and 5% carbs. Also you can see how many calories you are getting. Even though you generally don't need to count calories on this plan as long as you are eating legal food, and not binging, some people find they need to stay in a certain range.
5. Hidden sugars, or bad carb sources. Eating shakes and bars may be the reason. Or, cheese stalls some people. What kind of artificial sweetners are you using, if any? Are you drinking caffeine?

Also, the less weight you have to lose, the slower it is to come off.

Definitely, definitely work on changing your mind set regarding fat and cholesterol. You can't make it on the plan if you don't.

Hope this helps - hang in there, it'll happen.
