If I were going to guess, I'd guess you're afflicted like so many here: You have a good first week (or two), you see a 5-7 pound loss and then you start getting a little lax and letting little thing creep in that impacts your losses. The only cure is to "get tough" with yourself and fully commit, if that's what you really want. If you haven't been on protocol, though, that's the biggest problem. You can't trick this program; if you go at it halfway, it doesn't work. But, only you can make the determination whether you're really fed up enough to give it your complete dedication.
