levvcarlos reacted to Butterthebean in CravingsHang in there Amanda. For me it got better as soon as I started eating soft foods.
I'm not condoning this, but when I was on full liquids I licked the flavoring off of 5 wheat thins. My God it was good, and I was satisfied. My dog ate the freshly licked wheat thins and she was happy too.

levvcarlos reacted to Butterthebean in Stalling StillRead the link to the article in my sig. It will explain why the scale isn't moving. Initially your body was just burning all your excess glycogen stores, along with quite a bit of water weight. After 3 weeks or so your body starts to replenish all that glycogen along with all that water. It has to for you to have any energy. But it has nothing to do with your fat content. You're still burning fat, but the water gain is equalizing your weight. Soon the water and glycogen reserves will be restored and your weight will begin to fall.
