slow l;oss

been on cd for 4 weeks now lost a total of 16ibs thats good
but this week i have lost nothing
been on ss only and no cheating
its really putting me down i have got 2 stone to loose
does weight loss slow down nearer to your goal???
also was on my periods at the beginning of the week...:cry:

Are you in ketosis (you should be if you're not cheating?)? If you are then you must be burning fat, and you are probably just retaining water so thats where your period probably has an effect. I would just try to up your water intake slightly and then hang on in there until your next weigh in.

16lbs in 4weeks is amazing by the way. Have you been measuring yourself? You have probably lost inches and inches!

Hang on in there hun, you're doing fab.

Hiya
My losses are slow too - I don't cheat & want to lose another 4st so not near my goal. My cdc even questioned that they were slow - I follow ss or ss+, have 3+ litres water per week, but only lose 2 or 3 a week. I'm happy because a loss every week is a loss but just guess everyone is different - some people lose 5-7 or more per week & others dont. Just stick with it & think of the bigger picture & wether you would have losses every week if following a conventional weight loss method & have got on so brilliantly wellas you have so far?!

Are you due TOTM? Sometimes our bodies will retain water, but you'll loose inches. Don't let it put you off.
