I've been doing Protein Power for a little over 2 weeks and I stalled at about a week and a half at only 7 pounds lost. I think I wasn't drinking enough water, so I REALLY increased my consumption and I think the scale is a pound down (hard to tell when it's only a pound here and a pound there).

Anyway, hopefully I have that worked out! My question today is about sweating. In PP, the Eades' mentioned that some people sweat a lot during the first weeks of the diet. Today I had what could only be described as very intense hot flashes. I could NOT get cool at all, even after standing in front of the fan with it on high, and I was actually getting hotter! The only way I began to cool down was by gulping ice water. My question is - is this to be expected? Or is this menopause???? I've never experienced anything like it.

Any help you can give will be most welcome. Thanks!
