Hi Tiadacrab,

May I know how tall you are? May be it's because you are not over weight anymore, that's why you cannot loose weight.

May be the home made meatballs and fishballs are stalling you.

Also you might want to try and "extra clean" induction with no caffeine. I guess you might be Chinese since you've mentioned some Chinese food. Most of us Chinese drink lots of tea that is full of caffeine.

For my induction this time, I have skipped coffee, tea, and even sugar free sodas. I try not to use any stevia/splenda/equal to ensure that I loose weight during induction.

Not sure if you have heard of the "golden ticket" rule that Atkins works best the first time around. When the 2nd or 3rd time comes, the body is smart already. It's my N-th time on Atkins, so i better think of a way to out-smart my body's metabolism.

Good luck and keep in touch!

Cheers,
