Any or all of the above can impact our ability to lose weight.

Dr Atkins said to eat when hungry, stop when not hungry. For many of us, that means eating a whole lot less frequently than when we ate a lot of carbs.

And eating when you are NOT hungry can contribute to staying where you are.

OTOH, have you been measuring? Are your clothes feeling looser, your face thinner? Many times this WOE will allow us to build muscle and lose fat, but in equal weights, so, while the scale hasn't moved, our size has shrunk.


Thanks mickisue,
The tape measure is not snugging up either unfortunately. I have no health issues other than high bp. I don't eat unless I'm hungry although I'm still learning about fullness and stopping.

Just frustrated that so many seem to lose so effortlessly once they start lc -- I am so committed to this and would like to see even modest results.
