In Ketosis But Not Losing!
Alright, I might be jumping the gun a little bit but here's my problem. I've been using ketostix for the last 2 weeks and not one day have a I fallen out of ketosis. But so far I've only lost 2lbs this entire week. I'm eating about 2000 calories each day with 70-80% fat. I exercise 3x/week with 35 minutes of cardio and weight training. I take my vitamins every day with 60mg CO-Q10, 2 caps of essential oils (Atkins) and 300mg st. john's wort. The last 2 days I've been slacking in the water area though. I've only drank about 64 oz of water. But that wouldn't account for my slow loss the rest of the week. It can't just be muscle mass from weight lifting is it? I'm getting grumpy at the scale not moving! Earlier in induction things went so smoothly, now I'm on month 2 of 20-25 carbs with little weight loss. Anything I can do to shake things up a bit? I like this WOE and don't want to change, just wanna modify it so I get the results I want. Obviously I'd prefer not to do anything drastic like the fat fast, but will try it if it means I get that scale moving again and the clothes start to feel looser. Anyone else come across anything like that? What did you do to change things?
