Plateau so soon?
« on: February 25, 2011, 11:22:19 PM »
I lost 10 lbs in the first week, went through the headaches and shaking of withdrawal from sugar on days 2 and 3. I haven't changed anything from what I've been eating for 2 weeks and I haven't lost anytning.  I have gained 3 lbs.  I don't know if the 10lbs was a true loss or if my scale is off...but how can I possibly gain 3 lbs. when I am keeping my carbs under 20, exercised at the gym 3 days and we all went skiing the other day of the entire day.

Ugh...Not giving up...just a little deflated.    ???

Has this happened to any of you ?

Muscle weighs more than fat.The good news is that muscle burns more energy than fat.So putting on muscle will help you lose in the long run ;)
