Has anyone out there experienced slow weight loss when beginning the Atkins diet? Everything I've read says how in the first two weeks you will loose 5-10 pounds, give of take! And that you will experince the most dramatic loss during this time...... Since I began 8 days ago I have lost 2 lbs and that was about 2 days in. Since then I have not moved on the scale. I know I should not totally focus on the numbers and more about the loss of inches but I still feel the numbers should be going down. I am following the diet to a tee with no cheats. I even find it hard to consume much more that 12-14 carbs per day. Also my husband started at the same time. Eating exactly the same as I am and of course he is already down 7lbs! Any hints or advice would be greatly appreciated.

feeling discouraged,
