Sounds like we're in the same boat, Sue. And some days I feel like I'm sinking fast--LOL. I've been taking CLA for about 11 days now--with no notable change. I've also been exercising with the exception of this past weekend and I can't seem to get below 146. im not sure what else to do! I'm still taking the CLA--i paid for it so I'm using it until it's gone. I've heard some say that I could be gaining muscle and therefore that's why theres no change on the scale. But, there's no change in my clothing either. So, I'm left dumbfounded again!!! But, far from giving up!!!!

Keep going everyone--Like you said "you bought it--use it up." You could be stuck at a plateau right now and hopefully just keeping up your routine of exercise and good eating will help. I still suspect that Atkins and CLA will not necessarily work out--being high fat and CLA fighting fat. I did a low fat diet and lots of veggies and veggie soup to start so I lost lbs quickly and motivated me to keep going. Once I was losing I slowly introduced other foods, but still kept low fat.

Maybe post an average days meals for us to see and maybe there is something hidden in there as to why you are not losing. As long as you are not GAINING! That is great in itself!

Take care,
Robbit

Hi , this is a pretty good idea of what i eat. and Im tired of it. (2 months now.)

Breakfast
egg beaters, 3 pieces of bacon, sometimes orange juice but not every day.

snack
cheese
sometimes a peace or atkins indulge bar

sometimes for lunch like today. atkins shake and a small container of chichen salad or a regular salad with regular dressing
diet ice tea

snack
hard boiled egg

dinner
fish and small salad
thats it
Im really not eating a lot of fat. sometimes dinner I may have some meat and a salad.

Hi guys!! I've been on cla for two weeks now and I'm still holding at 8 pounds lost. I am also at a stand still, with my weight loss, plus it is also that time of the month and I like to avoid the scale, if ya know what I mean...lol. Anyway I'm trying not to get discouraged and you guys shouldn't either. We're all in this together, we can do it!!
