I'm so glad to here that you are doing so well so far.
Don't be surprised - and especially don't get discouraged - if you don't lose any weight for the next week or two or even gain a few pounds. It's perfectly normal for many, many people. It just has to do with your body adjusting its water retention cues to your new diet which takes a while.
Most of that ten pounds is water and your body almost certainly overdid it and dumped too much. It will start reclaiming some of it. You will still be losing fat during this entire process, but you may well reclaim more weight than you shed in fat.
Prepare yourself and don't get discouraged. The methods work for the VAST majority of people if you have faith and stay the course.
