Default Hi, i'm Kristina, Please help me!!

Hey guys.. my name is Kristina
i just joined. Used to pop to this boad before whenever had an atkins related question and its been really helpful. But now i;m really stuck, and was hoping if u could help me out please?

I've done 5days of atkins so far, i count my carbs, got low carb atkins chocolates as well to supress my sweet craivings, and have so far stuck to 20carbs a dau sucessfully.
I've also got the Ketostix and the they come out always positive pink (medium, about 15mg ketones).
But i am not losing weight at all. I weigh myself every morning and my scale always is the same! (( i'm really upset, as i dont know what is going on and what am i doing wrong then? please help me!

p.s. i'm 63.2kg (139.4 pounds), which has stayed constant throught this 5 days. and my goal weight is 55kg (121.3)

Just for reference what i ate in this 5 days so far:

Day 1: 2 coffees (usually a double expresso), 4 sweeteners, 1 cream, 1/2 onion, 4 mushrooms, 6cherry tomotoes, 2 eggs fried, 2 bacaon fried, ribena light (2.6 carbs), 2 garlic cloves.

Day 2: bacon 3 pieces fried, 1 fried egg, 1/2 cubumber, atkins chocolate bar (2.1 net carbs), fish oven cooked, source for it, courgette (zucchini), atkins chocolate bar.

Day 3: atkins chocolate bar, 6 cherry tomatoes, 1/2 cucumber, 1/4 onion, fish oven cooked, source for it (0.4 carbs says on a pack), peas half a cup, atkins chocolate bar.

Day 4: 2 atkins chocolate bars, monzarella cheese, chicken oven cooked, courgette (zucchini), peas popped and green streaks.

Day 5: coffe, 2 sweeteners, atkins chocolate bar, a piece of gammon (salted ham), broccoli half a cup and cauliflower half a cup, tin of tuna in sunflower oil (which i drained), 1/4 onion, and 6 little corn sticks (raw).

Please tell me what am i doing wrong? i'm really frustrated, as i count all, refurse myself food, ketostix come out positive, but scales weight dont change

Thank You, i really appreaciate you help xx

Hi!

Don't worry about that. It's not that this is not allowed, it's just easier for everyone to keep track of the replies if they are only posted in one place. You'll see that people here are very friendly and threads asking for support never remain unanswered, no matter where on the Board they are posted.

You've received some great advice in the other thread. I hope you'll figure things out and get awesome weight loss results. I'm looking forward to your "OMG... I've lost ___ lbs in ___ days! That's so awesome!!!" post.

Good luck!
