hello ladies, I'm still sick but besides this I feel alright. Zanny I'm on a diet 800 from the start and my first weeks' losses weren't as great as I see it here. However I did not reach a "third or.and fourth week plateau" as I see it so often here, my losses were constant and steady. At the end it all evens out I guess. And at the beginning you lose water.glycogen mainly, when I weighted after the first two weeks I did not lose any water and mainly fat, my cdc was happy. So fewer pounds lost might involve less water loss which is actually good. Take care !
