Well, you guys might want to post what you have been eating for the last few days and see if anyone can give you any feedback. I know it can be frustrating. Unfortunately, the less you have to lose, the slower it is. I only lost 4 pound in a 3 week induction period and then averaged 3-4 pounds a month.
There are other signs of ketosis besides the sticks. Bad taste in the mouth, smelly urine, a hot feeling at night are a few of the most common ones. I get the metallic taste in my mouth and that is how I tell. Any of you guys getting any of these signs? I would post my menus for you to look at, but I am a vegetarian and I am not sure how well they would apply. If you look at peoples journals (Karen, LisaN....) you can see what they eat and that might give you some ideas.
MsAtt-Yeah, I am finishing a Ph.D in anthropology at the University of Tennessee. My specialty is paleoanthropology (human evolution) which is where I got my screen name. My suggestion is to start looking at the web and see what kinds of programs there are out there. You also might want to talk to a couple of profs in your department and see what they suggest. Check out the journals in your field-all fields have their professional journals and societies- and see where people who publish teach and check out those schools. Is there a Near Eastern Archaeology journal? You might want to try American Association of Anthropology Journal-that is mostly cultural and archaeology.
Try these links:

Once you have narrowed down the places you want to apply-call those schools and talk to the person you want to work with and also talk to grad students in the department to get the real scoop. BTW, I got sober in 1988!
