Hi everyone!  Day 4 here.Hi everyone! Day 4 here. I have been following the protocol to a T and the scale hasn’t moved. Any tips?  

Answer 1

Keep going and don’t weigh everyday . Go by your clinic’s weight . Only day 4 you will start to burn fat . The scale should start moving anyway . Don’t get discourage .  

Answer 2

Make sure to drink LOTS AND LOTS water

Don't weigh yourself. It will be extra sweet when you weigh in after a week.

It takes a few days for your body to get into ketosis so don’t worry about it. I tried only weighing myself once a week because the scale fluctuates every day

Answer 5

Stay off the scale and wait for your weigh in. This is a change in lifestyle, not a magic wand. Patience is the key.  

Answer 6

Don’t weigh yourself until you meet with your coach that’s what I do.  

Answer 7

I only weigh once a week with my coach. Otherwise, I would drive myself crazy.  

Answer 8

Stay off the scales drink lots of water. It will show up when you least expect it.

Answer 15

We all reflect on the dreaded scale. since beginning the program (8/6) I have been 100%, I’ve loss 84. 9 pounds in those 6 months but in the last month, I only loss 1. 6 pounds. I’ve racked my brain, searched my logs and to no fault of mine can I figure this out. I was feeling so discouraged, I’m less than 25 pounds to my goal weight of 160. I was feeling like a failure and ready to just give up! However, after comparing my measurements from 8/6 to today I’m feeling great about myself. I know I personally focus so much on the scale and need to look more at the whole picture. #wegotthis #weareworthit SW: 269 CW: 184. 5 GW: 160 Arms 15. 5 - 10. 5 Chest 46. 5 -38. 0 Waist 49. 0 - 33. 5 Hips 56. 5 - 40 Thighs 25. 5 - 20

Answer 16

It will!  

Answer 17

I curse my scale everyday

Answer 18

Resist weighing yourself no more than once a week. You are only 4 days in. The loss will come!  

Answer 19

Started diet with asking not to be told how much i weighed but how many lbs/inches loss. Thus focused on the loss vs weight. kept me positive about losing which is the key to success! weighed self once a week which kept the anxiety of daily checking loss. also sometimes u loose inches vs lbs. thus i determined my loss by how my clothes fit.
