First Plateau after 2 weeks???
Dear Julie:
OH, YES IT IS POSSIBLE 
TO HAVE A PLATEAU AFTER ONLY TWO WEEKS!! I know, because it just happened to me, and I, too, thought I had mucked it all up already! I was at -19, and holding steady. I ate/drank exactly as the doctor ordered, but that darned @#$%^ 
scale wouldn't budge a pound. Luckily, my loving husband consoled me with taking me on lovely walks outdoors and reaffirming that he loved me no matter what, so I determinedly stuck to my guns and FINALLY, the scale started to go down again. But those two weeks wreaked havoc on my sense of contentment, 
let me tell you! I've only dropped an additional 4.5 lbs, but I know that as long as I try to follow the eating plan and WALK, WALK, WALK, I cannot help but lose weight, albeit S-L-O-W-L-Y. I started out at double my desired weight, so as I have less to lose than a lot of other people, it still is weight that has to come off. I know, it is frustrating to hear about other folks dropping so much weight so quickly, but as you've read a zillion times already at this site, everyone is different and loses at their own rate. Hang in there, and watch out for all the Easter goodies that are appearing at friends and family homes everywhere. God bless and continued success to you, and to us all!
