Clarifying my start date and history.
DCBROWNE
My mistake - I did not to correct those numbers or verify how they happened. I was on the plan previously and dropped 20 #. I've put some on since being off the plan. It has been since November 2001 since I was LCing. At my homeopath's suggestion I went off the plan due to fatigue and went on a fruit and veggie w/ little meat diet. From there I went Weight Watchers. And now back to what I know (knew) works. I went back on induction on 5/13.
My carbs are between 10-20g per day (I did not subtract fiber). My fat is low - at about 55-65%. Calories average 1700 per day. I started consuming olives and using olive oil for salad dressing to increase my fat intake.
I am second week of induction and not one ounce is lost. My history on this plan (as I've started and stoped three times now since 1998) is 4+ pounds in the first week and another 4+ pounds the second.
I'm feeling older, I've lost more muscle mass, I'm easily exhausted, I've had more fatigue and mood swings, I've also stoped drinking coffee and alcohol since 2001. The weight I've gained, I gained since I quit smoking late 1997. I was a little over weight when I quit at 153 #.
I will see what the weight lost is at induction end, but a this rate, without a big whoosh, it looks as though I'm resistant.
Again, advice and support would be appreciated.
