Frustrated

Pricilla,

Have you been checked for PCOS? Dr. Bernstein says in his new book that
people with PCOS may not be able to lose weight even on an extremely low
carb diet without the help of medications. (Metformin usually, I think.)

This is my 5th week of LC'ing. I use no caffiene, no aspertame or any
sweetner other than Splenda and very little of that. I keep my carbs
between
20 and 25 daily. I bowflex and walk, I drink enough water to float a
battle
ship. I have not "cheated" (and I have wanted to very much!) I had no
weight
loss last week, so took the advice from JC to eat less and exercise more
and
today when I weighed in I'm up 2 lbs.

I'm not going to wreck the other 15 that I've lost, but right now I'd like
to just eat the biggest baked potato and all the chocolate and biscuits
and
gravy and pretty much anything else that is full of carbs.

I'm afraid if I don't lose something next week, even a pound that will
just
be the end of me!

Anyone have any constructive ideas?
