I have read about this topic before and about others not losing weight and beging stuck in a stall. Ive read that it will end eventually.... :( But Im soo down. I knew I was in a 2 week stall last week, but the same thing is happening again this week. Im so early out I just thought I would loose some. I thought that the first few months were more rapid. Is it like this all the time? I lost 11 lbs on opti, and 11 the first week, but nothing since .. sorry, just venting.

are you eliminating regularly? Abit unusual, but if you are not putting the calories in, the scale has to move at some time. Didn't you say your clothes were fitting better. If you can only weight yourself once a week when you get up before food. You will lose the weight, I am sure. 11 lbs. the first week is alot, so maybe your body is catching up. Hang in there it will drop!!

Yes, it is completely normal. Just stick to your plan and the scale will start moving again, I promise.

I know the feeling. Two weeks ago I lost nothing, last week I lost 6 lbs, this week 1 lb. I keep telling my body I am eating too little to not lost weight but it's not listening!!

But, Northern Star, you *have* lost weight. Six and one make seven pounds! That's three and a half pounds averaged over two weeks.

It's happening the way it will happen -- congratulations!

I know, I know, I really can't complain. I guess it's because there really is no average, no consistent weight loss so far, just hills and valleys and plains that it can be frustrating. It's a roller coaster for sure!

Hang in there the scale has no option but to move. You metabolism is adjusting. Just think 11 lbs in one week? WOW. Next thing you know you will wake up and find you dropped 5 lbs overnight. Just follow the rules and you will do great. I too hit my first stall 2 weeks out now I am down 120 lbs
