Irish -
Scale weight is affected by so many things - what you are wearing, what time of day you WI, what your sodium levels are, and how much water you drank! And if you visited the rest room before you stepped on the scale. Not to mention TOM, and any medications you might be using.
Do you try to wear the same thing each time you WI? I know some people (I think Sy) has a set of WI clothes, so they are not a factor in the scale number.
Can you eat several times a day? It seems that really helps keeping the
metabolism going.
I don't have records for my first months in LAWL - but I know that I didn't lose anything for at least 10-14 days after my initial loss on the starting juice and protein fast. The thing that kept me going was that I knew that I wasn't eating too much to lose weight, AND I had just spent LOTS of money on it. The other thing I found was that I really needed to weigh my proteins - I was eating too much chicken!
And I went thru a stretch where I was hovering up and down .2 pounds - and I started eating a lite every morning for my breakfast, and that seemed to start things going again. Not that you have to eat a lite, but something in the morning. But I usually go to WI about 10:00.
And truthfully, WL is never constant for me. I tend to lose in clumps, and then my body plateaus, and then I lose again. For me, this is the process.
Hope this helps!
