lisae6622KeymasterHi! I'm new to cns and seem to be having a tough time of it! I know I likely did this to myself, as I've been on just about every diet you can think of! I've been spoiled because usually I can go on a diet and lose weight, but lately I haven't been successful. My recent attempt was with hcg….I lost about 10 lbs in 3 weeks and decided to switch to cns. I wonder if doing this messed with my metabolism somehow. The first 2 weeks on cns, i lost only 2 lbs. The last lbs was only lost after removing nuts and dairy, so its been rough! Carb nite came and it is 4 days later and I still seem to be holding onto that weight I initially lost. My scale shows fat loss, but I'm really not sure if I can trust that! My next Carb nite is Friday and I plan on sticking with it, but any advice for this newbie would be appreciated!, thanks!

lisae6622GuestHi shrenlee! Thanks for the advice! Would I start that here or do I need to do that somewhere else? Thanks!

Bradley R. CollinsParticipantEveryone I know who has tried hog, including myself a few years ago, had some messed up metabolisms when coming off. It may just take a while to fix your thyroid before CNS will really work well. A diet break may be in order of sensible food with slowly increasing calories.

lisae6622GuestThanks for the advice aceqhounddog!Thinking of giving it another carb nite before I make that decision. My fingers are crossed!

Bradley R. CollinsParticipantAnd I just reread my post, which should say “hcg” not “hog”. But I'm guessing you figured it out:)

Lesli BortzParticipantHave you tried eliminating gluten? That made a big difference in the post CN bloat for me. A log would be the best start since you can get more detailed information written out and therefore more detailed replies on a regular basis.
