I have been following the Atkins diet since April 28th. I haven't lost any weight (haven't gained any, either) My husband, who started this diet with me has already lost 17lbs. What could be wrong? I am so depressed, please help.

Can you show us your menu?? Have you checked out fitday.com ? They really help calculating the carbs you've eaten daily and lots of other goodies too...Remember now men seem to lose faster...but I can't understand your no-loss at all I would have to see what you eat to get an idea...

Hi! I started about the same time as you, my hubby is down 20lb, me? just the initial 5lb loss, then nothing! :So I am going to watch this thread just to see if you get any good ideas, and I will act on them. I have been using the fitday and are at 16 - 20 gms. Anyway, good luck, we will just have to keep on going

Ok well I'm now 3 days off from my whole month on atkins and I've lost so far 9 pounds and the first 5 were pretty easy then I had some stalling with Tom etc....then something strange happened I started exercizing, walking, small weights and still nothing happened and then I get sick some kind of stomach virus but I went one entire day without eating sort of a "sick fast" and now it's 2 days later and I'm dropping much more rapidly so I don't know if it was the exercize or the fast but I feel so much better! Some people do fasts when they start stalling and trust me I wouldn't want to do it again for awhile but some how it helped boost my system. I also dropped luncheon meats and sugar-free jello I think those are definite stallers...Good luck and don't give up

what are you doing for exersice, that might have something to do with it !
