I know it's not what you want to hear, but it is totally normal to only lose 1/2 lb. here or there. There are a number of things that could cause it. If you just started exercising, you're muscles could be holding water. A lot of people hit a plateau when they are around 10 lbs or 10 days on program. You're body is just fighting against the weight loss. Not sure about the HNS being the problem. Sometimes I think the counselors just want to give you a reason to help you feel better although I have heard from others on 3FC that they did lose more when they drank more HNS. I haven't noticed a difference with my body but everyone is different. Stay strong and stay on program and you will see a drop! You're doing awesome!
