Re: It's normal to have a "pause" after induction. Also, if you're body had been deprived of protein prior to changing to this WOE, your body will be busy building new muscle. This muscle gain can mask fat loss. Since you started recently, take your measurements now, so that you can track your progress more readily. -- DietLowCarb.com

I'm still doing the induction--but I have only lost a total of 5 lbs since I started. My mom started at the same time & she has lost about 15 lbs (she is about 30 lbs heavier than I am), also my boss lost about the same amount as my mom during her first month. I know not everyone loses at the same rate, but I was expecting more than a 5 lb loss. Could I be losing so much slower because I lost about 40 lbs last year on a different weight loss program? Any ideas are greatly appreciated! Thanks for your replies to the first question too!

        This may sound strange, but I understand what you mean about "floppy" fat. That's usually what happens to me right before that area gets smaller. A while ago, it was these two little chunks on my butt, then it was a little chunk on each thigh. I checked a couple of days later and the little floppy section was gone. Hope this happens for you too! (NT) -- Katie, 10:40:44 06/12/02 Wed
        Okay okay -- I wanna lose some floppy stuff too! Where do I sign up?? (NT) -- Kel, 17:11:46 06/12/02 Wed
