no loss in 5 days

Exact same boat here as well. I lost almost 40 lbs in the first three weeks then BAM nothing. I am not freaking otu though b/c 38 lbs is incredible and I know I will lose more soon enough. Good to know about the 3 weeks plateau though.

WHEW!! I was hoping it wasn't just me! I weigh in once a week usually but this week I've been weighing more often because I keep waiting for thos enumbers to go down again! I too am blaming it on my period being due....but it's still very frustrating. I read in one of the many books that a lot of women stall the week before and then once the period is gone they drop like 10lbs in a week. God I hope that's true!
