 Re: Help! Not losing... | |
4 days with no weight loss is normal, but...
According to DANDR 2002, which is what we go by at ADBB, the first thing you add during OWL are more veggies. OWL is divided into 9 rungs, each with one food group. The first one is veggies, the second one is diary, the third is nuts, the fourth is berries, and so on. The chapter on OWL is number 14 in DANDR 2002, where it explains how this phase should be done correctly.
Are you following a different edition of the book?

I believe that the best way to overcome temptation is not with willpower, which is so often in short supply, but with our brain power, a potentially unlimited resource.
Imagine that you're doing great, losing weight, feeling better than ever, thrilled with yourself, hearing compliments from friends and acquaintances---and then it happens! Despite all your good intentions, you're mightily tempted by a food you're not supposed to have. What to do? I'll tell you this: You'd better have a strategy ready!"
