Congratulations! I went through the same thing. I knew I wasn't getting enough calories. In my mind though, I still gear more towards that way of thinking, "Less calories=weight loss". It wasn't that I was purposely not eating enough calories, I had been running to the barn every day after work, dealing with a really sick horse and wanting to get there as soon as I could and not even grab anything, not that I had anything really in the fridge to grab...hadn't gone grocery shopping for me, but for my horse, yes, but that was only to grab the last 5 large bottles of Kayro syrup.
But still, I'd get on the scale in the mornings and not see even a 1 lb. loss. So, I've upped the food intake, LC, but had a slip up last night and ate a handful of almonds and cashews. I was starving, but saw a 2 lb. loss this morning. I'll take 2 lbs. over 0 lbs.
I'm doing some menus, then a grocery list, so this weekend, I'll be cooking, having planned better, freezing individual portions and will be back on track.
