Hi everyone:

I seem to be having a bump in the road. I have been on Atkins since February. I have lost 45 lbs. in the past (last January to April). Right now I feel like I am doing everything right but the scale is not moving. It very well may be my scale. I am going to buy a new one. I do feel a difference in my clothing but not what I think I should be seeing. I am still doing induction. The only thing over and above that is I am eating jello with Whipping cream which I have come to notice (re-reading the book) that it is allowed on induction. I have been drinking great quantities of water 13-15 glasses a day and am wondering if I am drowning myself and therefore retaining water. It seems last year when I lost the 45 lbs. it was very steady and coming off at between 2-3 lbs. a week. This time I have lost about 20 lbs. in total (some of which I gained back from last years loss). I am just wondering if anyone out there has come across the same bumps in their weight loss challenge. If so please drop me a line. Any suggestions welcomed with open arms.

Hope to hear from you soon, keep LCing.

Congrats on your weight loss Low carb really does work!

Don't run out for a new scale just yet! Are you measuring? You may be losing inches right now that are not reflected on the scale. It's also very common to have a bit of stall several weeks in. Just keep following the plan, and you'll see results!

Cheers!

on induction? it doesnt say that in mine...lol



no way! drink up!!

salty things and certain foods will cause you to retain...tom too.



great job! just keep a level head and keep going. i know it seems so difficult to wait, but in no time you will be being praised for losing so much!!!

just hang in there guy. prob holding water watch the salt, forget the wippedcream. i would start cutting out stuff till i found out what it was that was stalling me.
