Seriously wondering if my slow down has more to do with eating too much protein than almonds, the occassional bar, or strawberries. I am going to try to cut back on my meat portions for a few days and see if it makes a difference. I understand it could also just be a normal plateau or TOM, but can't help but wonder.

I'm telling you, check the wheat in your diet. Its made all the difference in mine. Or try a meat fast - I know you're thinking checking your meat portions but there was something in the book about eating only meat for a few days. Have you checked your measurements recently? Its funny how things change there without the scale noticing. You can do it! You are doing it! You will do it! Hahaha seriously - keep it up chicky.

I thought of that, but the only wheat is in the occassional Atkins bar. Everything else is meat, veggies, fruit,cheese, and eggs. What book says to eat only meat for a few days? I only have the DANDR.

I don't know which book it was in, it was someting I've seen posted a few times in response to other peoples stalls though. The Atkins bars are the only source of wheat I was eating too but the changes were pretty drastic. I bought another box yesterday but made sure they were wheatless so we'll see if its the whole sugar alcohols bit or if it was just the gluten.

It does look like over the past week anyway that your protein has been a little heavier than it should be but instead of cutting down on it you can just balance it with more fats. Add some olives or avocado somewhere, maybe instead of the bars? Just a thought!

Which ones did you buy that didn't have wheat?

There are a few of them. I spent a little while reading the ingredient lists, plus they're nicely highlighted at the end if there is wheat, soy, etc in them.

Sounds like a mission. Seek out non wheat Atkins bars. LOL I don't use them a lot, but I like having them for emergencies. Thanks for the tip!
