thanks for the advice... I stopped taking the fiber...

DebPenny, unfortunately it doesn't have a nutritional statement so I don't know if it had carbs in it. Perhaps the fiber is why I have been on this diet for a month now and I've only lost 10 lbs even though I've been taking in ~20g of (known) carbs per day. I lost the 10 lbs in the first week and haven't lost anything since. In the past when I was on the diet I had no problems loosing weight continuously. Is it possible to plateau after the first week??

again, thanks!
