First of all I apologize if I did this incorrectly - I did read the sticky section first and tried to search for this topic but I could not pull up any threads. So please forgive me if I did this out of turn:
I finished my first week of IP yesterday and had my weigh-in last night. I lost ZERO pounds. The Dr. was convinced I had cheated. CONVINCED. I explained to her that this costs a lot of money! I'm not cheating! But she literally said "I've never seen this before. I've never seen someone not lose weight their first week that has not cheated". So the air is completely out of my sails. I am a vegetarian and have Celiac's so I can only eat GF IP products and eggs/tofu for my protein. Here is what I ate:
Breakfast:
fine herb and cheese omelete packet
Venti Starbucks black iced tea with three whole earth sweetners/1 splenda
Lunch:
Apple Oatmeal Packet
2 cups of roasted cauliflower (roasted w/lemon only)
Snack:
Vanilla Crispy Treat or Banana/Pineapple Drink
Dinner:
4 eggs
1 cup asparagus w/2 tsp olive oil and 1/4 tsp salt
1 cup bell peppers
(I haven't been able to add in the two additional egg white requirement because I've been so full - will try adding to my breakfast instead)
THAT IS IT. I DO NOT CHEAT. No workout beyond my 15 minute walk to subway each way. I drink 90 ounces of water a day plus the morning tea and a couple Perrier in the evening.
Has anyone else experienced this? I only have about 25 pounds to lose but my dr said I should have lost at least 4 pounds this week alone. Looking for any advice from someone who has been there........
