Frank Lynch The Samuel Johnson Sound Bite Page is at: http://www.samueljohnson.com/ It's mostly water. You could be eating a lot of salty food one day, and before you know it, you gain 3 pounds because salt causes water retention. Has nothing to do with fat loss though. To put it differently: you didn't lose 3 pounds with peeing today. Take care and don't get discouraged by one day. Draw yourself a graph of your daily values, then calculate averages for each week and connect the averages together with a marker. You'll see that you're losing pounds on average, and that's the important part. -- B-D_ Atkins since 11/24/03 199/183.3/165 |

Frank Lynch The Samuel Johnson Sound Bite Page is at: http://www.samueljohnson.com/ IIRC, it takes 3500 surplus calories to amass 1# fat; therefore, unless you ate 10,500 surplus calories that day, this weight has to be water. Don't worry! HTH~Stretch~ |

Well, that's whatcha get for obsessing over the scale and weighing every day. Follow the directions and weigh once a week. We all fluctuate day to day, even hour to hour, several pounds up and down.

Add the broccoli, nutmeg, and stock and bring to a boil over moderate heat. Adjust the heat so that the mixture simmers gently, cover, and cook for 20 minutes or until the broccoli is very tender. 3.

Return the puree to the Dutch oven, stir in the cream, salt, and pepper, and set over moderate heat for 4 minutes or just until heated through. 4. Place in turine and drizzle yogurt over soup.
