[QUOTE="Goonergal, post: 2384068, member: 368709"] Hi [USER=507999]@Vidar[/USER] First some reassurance. Herbs, spices and the odd glass of Coke Zero shouldn’t be interfering with either blood glucose control or weight loss. And exercise makes little difference to weight loss, so please don’t beat yourself up about any of that. Is the 1lb loss for the past week? Or is that over a longer period? If the former, it’s not to be sniffed at - not everyone loses weight quickly and 1lb a week is a decent loss. From what you say about your eating patterns it sounds like you’re doing all you can, so perhaps just be patient? My own weight loss was very slow indeed at the start. Weight does fluctuate from day to day, so although it’s easier to say than do, perhaps stick to weighing once a week at the same time on the same day? Or even less frequently? Finally, have you been checked for things like under active thyroid that could also be interfering with your best efforts? And how are your blood glucose levels doing? Sounds very frustrating.
