Re-Feeding Question

[suziq7575]

Has anyone else had any luck with the re-feeding concept as discussed in Omega3's "plateau" thread? I am on a plateau now with only five pounds to go to my target. I only had 10 pounds to lose to begin with and lost half of it last week (my first week of Phase 1). Sunday is the last day of Phase 1 and I will either stay on another week or try something drastic. I am afraid to go on Atkins because of the high fat and am reluctant to try the oil of oregano if it makes you restless and unable to sleep. So I am wondering about the refeeding to get my metabolism a boost.

Y'know, I've been reading your posts for the past couple of days, and I don't think you are at all on a plateau. Especially if you've only been on SBD for less than two weeks and lost 5 pounds in the first week. In the last news letter, it is stated that if you only have a little bit of weight to lose, that you probably won't lose the 8-13 pounds in the first two weeks suggested in the book. I'd imagine that's especially true for your weight, since it's pretty low to begin with. A 2.5 pound average over two weeks is excellent, and I dont think you have anything to worry about. Just follow the plan as directed and you will eventually reach your goal.

Good luck!
