I know it's hard to phathom, but you need fat to succeed on low carb. I couldn't grasp the concept either, constantly watching my fat intake... But then I stopped losing. I upped the fat and whala! A whoosh. I'm not suggestion you start digging into a bucket of lard or anything, you'll still want to try and use more "healthy" fats, like olive oil and avocado's, but don't be afraid to use more saturated fats too, like butter and mayonnaise. Trust me, this will work a lot better if you eat more fat.
