I am so mad I could scream! First off, I have a thyroid problem, and they are still trying to get my meds right.... My endocrinologist recommended I try the low-carb thing, so I have been doing it for a week. I know it has only been a week, but i get on the scale, and I stayed exactly the same! I didn't expect to lose 10 pounds or anything, but at least 1 pound would have been nice. Sorry ladies...I just had to vent.
Do not get frustrated after 1 week of doing it. MOST people take 2-3 weeks until they first see results, its normal. This is why alot of people dont stick to a diet bc after the first week or 2 of not seeing results they think it won't work. But the way our bodies work, you have to wait a little over 2 weeks and then you will start seeing big differences. Dont get discouraged, just stick to it and you'll be surprised by the results.

as somebody who has struggled weight forever, i so feel your pain! out of curiosity....have you been following a specific plan or just trying to eat less carbs?
Thanks girls for the words of advise. I have to have another blood draw in 3 weeks. Hopefully my thyroid numbers will go down again. They are still way out of range, but they are definitely better. It's definitely tough with the holidays coming up, but hopefully I will start seeing results soon...

I am pretty much following the Atkins plan. No more than 20 carbs a day for the first 2 weeks. I have tried SO many different diets, so when my endo recommended this one, I said, what the hell!
did you ever try weight watchers...its very effective
