Dear elliebelly,

Weight loss when eating low carb comes in fits and starts. Sometimes you just get a whosh and lose a couple of pounds all at once, sometimes the scales don't move for a week.

You need to take it easy. This way of eating is for life. I've been eating low carb for nearly two years now and I still enjoy it.

Some of the weight you lost at first was water. You are doing plenty of exercise so you could be gaining muscle - which is good, but muscle is heavy. Measure yourself rather than rely on the scales. Also your body may be taking time out to repair damage done by previous bad eating habit (i.e. low fat, not enough protein).

You have got time on your side. This way of eating has huge health benefits, not just weight loss.

Just keep going - it'll happen - honest

Robert
