| Not Losing Weight! | Pam | |

I started on the Atkins Diet almost two weeks ago. Have been faithful with Induction and those sticks sure do turn purple! But I'm not losing any weight. My scale shows only 1 lb in over a week and I'm discouraged. Am I eating too large a portions? What am I doing wrong? Any hints?

hey, Do not give up. I found the simpliest things makes my scale go down. Try walking during your lunch break. If you work. Also, no half and half use heavy cream in coffee. I only use vinegar and oil on my salad. Even 2 grams of sugarr makes a difference to me. Only weigh yourself once a week. Do not go on that scale a week before your period and wait two after. I am here for support. I lost 15 lbs. so far, still on iduction b/c I want to lose a total of 30 lbs.

Hi there, I have gained two or three pounds this past week for NO apparent reason, other than I may be retaining water due to hormonal fluctuations. I have been faithful to the low carb diet, but gained anyhow. Has anyone had this happen? susieq109

There is a terrific book out there that directly discusses this gaining of weight and what to do call "Curves, Permanent Weight loss without Permanent Dieting" by Gary eavin. This book discusses that weight loss might not occur if you are a constant dieter and your metabolism is down. There is also a test in the book to take to decide if you or carb intolerant or calorie sensitive. I have lost 36 lbs since last July (I am not real big) on low carb. Hitting plateaus and then eating carbs and exercising at my Curves (exercise place for women) to raise my metabolism. It is slow and steady, just like I put it on, but works. Others at the club, larger people have done remarkable. Exercise and low carb, check out the book..I found the new book at Sam's Club $13.88, the original book I received when I joined my Curves (gave them 3 names of friend who might be interested in the program...they called them and invited to check out the place and that was it).

Has anyone else read a book called Maximize Your Metabolism? www.FastMetabolism.com I read it about 2 months ago and have been very happy with the results ever since. Although it promises to double a person's metabolism in 30 days or less - I did not personally reach my goal of losing 50 pounds for a full 2 months, but I did do it!!! I just wanted to know if anyone else had any experience with this author. Maybe we could work with each other online during the maintenance part.
