No, you have not lost 7 pounds of fat. Your scales have gone down by 7 pounds. That is very different. A lot of the weight you lose when you first start low carbing is water weight associated with the carbs in your body. So you may have lost a pound or two of fat, but not much more at this stage. How do your clothes feel? How do you feel in yourself? These are the key indicators. Low carbing is a way of life, not a quick fix diet. Low carbing is not for everyone and you may need to look at your own motivation for this again.

Keep faith with this way of life, there are very few who are overweight that it does not work for.
