Jazz, I posted earlier, but I guess it didn't take! Sorry about that!
Can you list for us a normal daily plan? Lots of little things can spoil your weight loss in Phase 1, and it's easy to not know or notice them. One person on the boards was eating 2.5 cups of Ricotta each day...you are allowed 2.5 servings of dairy, and you are allowed Part-skim ricotta, so why not? Because the calorie count was enormous, and the fat was pretty high, too! So, list what you are eating, in general, each day and let us take a look, okay?
Also, Kim's points on exercise and water are really important. You should be drinking about 8-10 glasses (8oz) of water...which works out to at least 64 oz, a half gallon! And only two of those glasses can be supplements like Crystal Light. The rest should be regular water. I keep a big glass on my desk and a gallon jug of water nearby and am able to drink almost a gallon a day during work. This helps a lot!
Be aware, too, that you may lose more slowly, but that doesn't mean you won't lose, okay?
Welcome, Jazz!
BTW, I love your avatar! Very cute!
