Default New here but very frustrated with NO loss

New to this board but I need SOMEONE to tell me what Im doing wrong!! Ive been on Atkins for about 16 days-and to the best of my knowledge Im following the diet VERY sticktly. BUT IM NOT LOOSING!! What am I doing wrong???? Im so frustrated I want to scream! I know weight loss is a slow process but I really thought Id have SOME loss by now. I did feel my clothing becoming looser the first week but thats all stopped. And I KNOW Im under the recommended 20 carbs. And Im staying in induction till I see SOEMTHING happen on that scale!

Sorry my first post is such a downer but Im so frustrated I feel like quiting-but frankly Im afraid that if I quit I'll suddenly BALLOON UP with all the fats and proteins Ive been eating! So, if only for that reason, it looks like Im not quitting.

About the only thing that Im doing that isnt allowed is ONE cup of coffee in the am with a splash of heavy cream in it-is THAT whats making me not loose???

SO frustrated, L
