Re: ugh
Comparing your loss with a guy isn't a good idea. Men simply lose faster. It's the testosterone.
If you want to post a typical day's menu, we can take a look.
How much water are you drinking?J.

Re: ugh
Change things up a bit, all within the rules of course, and your body may respond to that as well. Just as you may get bored with certain routines and certain foods, your body can get bored, meaning losing no weight, with the fuel you provide. Move your total kcals around and stagger the amounts everyday, drink more water, make sure you are getting the right carbs at the right amounts, move into OWL if you are "stalled" in induction, and most definately post your diet so that these lovely people can try to help you......and then take the advice
That is the part most people fail to do!

Re: ugh
Post a menu for us. And yes change things up. I have the last 4 days and have succeeded. Are you getting enough water? Drink atleast 100 oz. I would shoot for 150 oz a day. Are you taking your vitamins?Comment

Re: ugh
Have you been taking measurements as well? Sometimes we lose inches (=fat) when the scales refuse to budge
If you didn't take measurements before you started maybe take them now so you have something to judge future measurements.
Are any of your clothes feeling a bit looser?Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

Re: ugh
Just remember - the induction period is just a chance for some people to jump start their weight loss and see tangible results so that they will want to continue with this WOE. You could be part of the group that doesn't respond to such restricted levels of carbohydrates and would do well to up your carb count by five grams.
I agree with PP's though - post your menu, drink lots of water, and don't eat the same thing each day. Variety is the spice of life.
