Week 1 on ss+ - only 1.5 pound loss

[21pounds]

Aaargh. I had my first weigh in last night and only lost 1.5 pounds. I have 1.5 stone to lose to get back to a healthy BMI and was on ss+ plan for a week which I stuck to (apart from a glass of wine at the beginning of the week). I was in ketosis by day 6. Very disheartening. Spent all week hungry and feeling v righteous knowing what good results normally happen. Have trawled internet for other similar low numbers but no luck...

Could it be because you have so little to lose?

I did SS and only lost 4lbs. I have about the same to lose. It's very disheartening, I know!!

Maybe because it will be off next week instead! Stay positive and stick to it xx

Thanks everyone...

...for your words of advice & encouragement. I plan to stick to it. Just bought ketostix to keep an eye on the ketosis!
