cvillacci I have a couple of suggestions.

1. Read tholian8's journal. She will inspire you.

2. Try measurements instead of the scale.

3. Try easing into the fat fast. It's hard to go straight from normal Atkins to fat fast, but if you ease into it it's doable. I did the fat fast and it's not bad -- gross to eat all that mayonnaise, but, well, once you see the pounds fly off at the rate of several each day, you kinda get to like the taste of mayo off a spoon. (Also, I found that slices of high-quality smoked salmon wrapped around tablespoonsful of cream cheese worked pretty well on the fat fast.) Plus if you like macadamia nuts, you're golden.

Also remember that hte fat fast is not intended to last more than five days. The days fly by when the numbers on the scale are dropping so rapidly.
