Hi!  Welcome to the board! The typical weight loss after 2 weeks of induction is 5-10% of what you have to lose. If you lost 5 lbs out of 100 in 6 days, that means you have already lost 5%, so you're doing great!  My advice however, don't freak out if there will be days when you weigh a little more than in the previous day. If you choose to weigh daily, make sure you don't get discouraged by the number you see on the scale. Here's a sticky post you might want to read about this: http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...ot-linear.html (Weight loss is not linear)
__________________ "The truth is that temptation lurks everywhere, unless you deny yourself a social and working life and the attendant pleasures of eating out. 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!" (Dr. Atkins' New Diet Revolution, Chapter 19) |

Take it one pound at a time and one day at a time. You are off to a fantastic start. You didn't gain the weight overnight and you are not going to lose it overnight. Don't forget to take your measurements, it is also a great gage of your weight lose and progress. Go for it girl!

As it turns out ... that loss has now turned into a 2lb gain.. I am getting so frustrated!!! I am thinking maybe the 2 diet pepsi's a day could be affecting it.... and maybe not enough water. Only been drinking abt 32 oz.

^ Yes, more water and (if possible) NO soda! You will see a big difference I'm sure.
