I am stuck!

I am so upset. I have been stuck at 5 lbs lost for the last three days. I started Phase 1 on 4/10. The last couple of days have been tough. I have not eaten anything I should not. However, I have been eating too much of the the allowed foods, i.e. too many almonds, sugar-free fudgsicles, too many eggs etc. Has anyone else experienced this? I am so mad, I could just cry.

Hi Karen,

Don't worry! I did the exact same thing as you and my weight loss stalled for a few days too. I found that if I cut out the sweets for a day or two, my weight would go right down a couple of pounds. And maybe try to eat your nuts with a meal so that you're not eating too many. I don't think the eggs would really make a difference though, since they are protein. Also, I found that if I stopped eating after dinner the scale would usually go down in a day or two. Good luck and try not to let yourself get discouraged! It's always better to see the numbers on the scale being stuck then watching them go up!

Thanks Shelley. I am so glad to have this board to talk to others about how I am feeling while on SBD. This is the first time I have not started eating all the wrong things just because the scale is not going down. I have hope for the future on SBD, because I feel that I have so much support from other board members. Have a good day!

Karen
