OK, as suggested I cut out Atkins bars from my diet one week ago to see if I can jump start this plateau. Also switched to unsweetened almond milk and coconut oil in my coffee (less carbs than cream). Weight hasn't budged yet BUT I lost half an inch on all measurements, making my waist the smallest yet!! I WILL stick with this!!

Way to go! Sometimes it just takes a little tweaking!

Lisa,
That is so awesome on your waistline measurements! Way to go! That's really what matters over the scale.
I wanted to ask you what cream you are using because there are 2 types, one is regular whipping cream and one is heavy. I have noticed that the whipping cream has all kinds of extra stuff added to it and it does have carbs. However, the heavy type does not have any carbs in it. I use Schepp's brand, but have recently discovered Organic Valley that literally only has 2 ingredients in it, cream and cargeenan, and it is awesome. It's the real deal as close as you can get to cream straight from the cow. :-) The Schepp's still has some other added ingredients but no carbs.

I do use the heavy--if am lucky I can find Shenandoah's Pride which is not ultra pasteurized and just has the one ingredient--heavy cream. I just wondered if maybe cutting that out might help--I love it so though so it might not last long LOL. I also use it to make whipped cream for my sweet tooth treats--hmm, now that you mention it, maybe it is the use of Splenda I need to cut back on instead!!

Hey Lisa, I just wondered because you said less carbs than cream and there should not be any carbs.
Awhile you commented on staying away from carrageenan in the heavy cream. It got me curious and I looked it up. It's actually naturally derived from red seaweed, is vegan, and used as a thickener in foods. Doesn't sound too bad. So that's what makes the cream thick. I thought it was thick on its own. Hmmmm.... : - )
I can't see giving up my cream; could be the Splenda. I use Sweet and Low most of the time and don't seem to have a problem. I wonder if they are both triggers equally, the Splenda and S and Low.

I guess I am still in the old mindset of thinking heavy cream must be bad for me somehow LOL. And I have recently discovered the joys of unsweetened coconut milk and almond milk (only one carb in an 8 oz cup!)--even my fiance likes them so we are treating ourselves to a glass every evening. Maybe I will try a sweet and low trial and see if that makes a difference. Or maybe even stevia, though I didn't really like the taste of it when I tried it.
