i am so disappointed..really. i am just fighting not being really pissed off. This is the first time i've gone back on atkins and i gained a lb in 10 days.i havent cheated and yet i've lost absolutely nothing. I am lost for words right now..fighting the tears. i've been such an emotional reck lately and for me to be working hard at not eating like a damn pig and having nothing to show for it is very hard. I thought my scale was maybe wrong BUT ITS NOT. i put my son on it and its fine. i dont even know where to start. i thought i was doing something right.WOW this is why i always weigh myself that way i'm on top of my game and i know if i eat something wrong that the scale doesnt move.. it doesnt make sense to me at all could it be the wine that i've been drinking 1-2 glasses a night which is weird cause i always drink when i'm on atkins but even then i've slowed down on my eating so much that atleast if i had lost 5 lbs i would have understood a lil bit more. i am just holding my tongue right now...today is going to be a long freaking day. I hope everybody has a good day though. lata

I'd give it til new years at least. Your 2 weeks isn't over yet. I've only lost 12 lbs since october 18th.

maybe you need to stop drinking wine.

Every time you go back to Atkins it can be different. I never lose 10 lbs the first week. I only lost 2 and I didn't have anything that wasn't on induction. Just be patient, stop drinking the wine and see how it goes.

Here are a couple of things to consider. Are you on any different medication? The bc pill has been making it very hard for me to lose weight. You could also have intestinal yeast overgrowth which can make it hard to lose. If you are exercising and following the diet and not losing you may want to keep a food and activity journal and then consult with your physician and see if he/she has any ideas about why you aren't losing. You should also do your measurements to see if you are losing any inches. Believe me I know how you feel. I let myself indulge in some low carb treats on Christmas day...yes, I ate more than I should have but everything was Atkins friendly...and I gained 5 pounds in one day. Today I was down a half pound but still. Anyway, look closely at meds and such to make sure they aren't slowing you down. I would also recommend that you give up the wine for a week or two and see if that makes a difference. Hang in there, you can do it.
