Default trying to find the reason

hello i am new i posted a little bit ago but thought i might have another
reason. pls give me your input

i made a 3 meat chli
hambuger 1 1/2 lbs
1 lbs pork
1 lbs beef
1 can tomato sauce whole can 9.5 carbs
3/4 cups pinto beans canned 15 carbs
1 celery stick 1.6 carbs
then spices
carb total = 26 carbs split into 6 meals + 7 carbs

i am not sure if this is what caused my weight loss to stop i thought i
would be ok because it made 6 sevings

Hi Natalie:

I did some quick math, and it looks to me like there's really not a
whole lot wrong with your recipe, other than it contains roughly 500
calories per serving. If you're eating it for lunch or dinner several
days in a row, that might cause a problem (it would for me, anyway).

Best wishes,
Bird

26 divided into 6 meals is 4 1/3 carbs per meal.

But to take a large hoe and a shovel also,
And to dig till you gently perspire.

Canned foods usually have lots of salt in them. It could cause water
retention if you've cut back on salt in other ways. The calories are
highish if you have this meal often and you are a small woman. Plus,
this is only the begining of your third week, and many people have a
small 'pause' at this time before begining losing again a week or two
later. Not to mention, it may have nothing to do with your diet at
all-- many women have water retention/masking during TOM. Relax,
you're doing fine. Remember it didn't go on overnight, and it won't
come off that way either. (But it will come off if you don't give
up.)

It depends on your size and how close you are to goal. If you are
small with only 10 or 20 pounds to lose then it will matter.
