First, a little backstory. I am new to your forum (been a member of the atkins.com forum since I began on Jan 6th). I am hoping to find some additional intelligent advice to get some ideas. I am 26 and have lost only 15 lbs since starting and have never cheated one time. I remain very diligent and cant seem to shake the weight.
At the advice of others some time ago, I moved up to OWL (about 8 weeks ago) by increasing my Induction veggies by 5 net carbs, i raised my calories per day and i cut out most "other" carbs (about 4 weeks ago) after a 6 week stall- such as all cheeses, products, cream, flax, salad dressings, caffiene, splenda, etc. i only consume meats (not processed), veggies, eggs, mayo, oil, butter and dry spices. i drink between 85-90 ounces of plain water a day. i do spin classes 2 x's per week and walk 3 x's as well. not only have i not added any additional vegetables in since OWL began but i also have not yet added back in any of the Induction approved "other" carbs i previously mentioned because i still have yet to see weight loss. i have a sneaky suspicion that it might be a particular vegetable or a combination of vegetables that may be causing it. here is a link to my fitday journal- i have all of last weeks entries and mond and today of this week in there- skip the 4th and 5th because i keep a written journal at home during the weekends.
thanks for all the help you can provide- I NEED IT and feel desperate.
