3dogs,
You only started on the 6th, five pounds in 2 weeks is good.
After the initial water weight loss, the slow down is typical. Read this
http://forum.lowcarber.org/showthre...345#post8943345. from "Best of" forum on why the scale can lie. When you don't have much to lose, also be sure to measure or check the fit of your clothes.
Again, refer back to Dr Davis's article at the very bottom of his website, what if you lose the Wheat and not the Weight? He wrote about a dozen reasons/ideas to try, many of them take longer than 2 weeks to see results. Thyroid? Etc.
#2 are you eating enough fat?? One reason you may not have had energy
Along with getting enough water and extra salt, after all the low fat advice for years, you may not be adding enough good fats to your meals.
Also consider the other benefits of eating grain-free, lack of cravings?, improvements in skin? less puffy face?
