Week 5 and no weight loss this week

[Moni B]

Hi,

I have been on the Cohen's program now for 5 weeks today. In my first month I lost 9.5kg and many centimetres which meant I was down to 63.5kg. In essence at week 4 I was only 1.5kg away from the top of my goal weight range (59 - 62kg). In the last week, I have only lost a couple of centimetres from my waist and hips and smaller amounts from other parts of my body. However I haven't lost a single gram... I know I am not supposed to weigh myself until every 4th week, but as I was so close to goal, decided that I would so I could see if I needed to start the refeed... You can imagine my disappointment when the scales said no weight loss this week... Having said that, it is day 18 of my monthly cycle so it is possible that is making a difference. This last week I haven't had any cheese at all and hardly any fruit and have cut back on the number of crispbreads so assumed I would have lost even more weight... I have been having probably 2.5 litres of water daily also... So, am hoping someone may be able to give me some positive thoughts on this all....

Best wishes

Monica
