That's because people panic and they are wrong. A plateau, as defined is DANDR (page 182), requires "no weight loss or loss of inches for at least four weeks."

How much heavy (whipping) cream are we allowed to have each day during induction??
Heavy cream is limited to 2-3 tbsp per day. Another 3 oz are part of the Special Category Foods, but they may "slow down weight loss in some people, and may need to be avoided in the first two weeks."

Also, according to fitday, heavy cream does not have zero carbs... one ounce has .8 carbs... one cup has 6.6 carbs etc...
That's right. Heavy cream does not have zero carbs. The manufacturer is allowed to write 0 on the label of any product that has a carbohydrate content of less than 1 g per serving.
