Default "ATKINS" food substitutes = stalls?

Blah. During induction I lost 12lbs. I started adding carbs slowly along with a lot of exercise and MUCH more weigh lifting. I was 141lbs at one point but now I bounce from 145lbs to 148 lbs. I'd like to think it's all muscle mass but it's frustrating.

The only thing I can think of is that I eat more of the "Atkins" and "low carb" foods now that I've added more carbs. On the ingredients they say something like 22grams of carbs....but they say to only count the NET carbs. is that a mistake?

Here were my typical foods on induction and foods I normally eat today.
INDUCTION:
Breakfast:
-2 Cups coffee
-Lots of turkey
-Diet Coke

Lunch:
-Salad
-Chicken w/ melted cheese
-Diet Coke

Dinner:
-Salad
-Artichoke
-Beef
-Diet Coke

Snacks:
-2 string cheese
-3 slices salami
-turkey slices
------------



NOW:
Breakfast:
-Atkin's pancake mix (3g Net carbs) w/ Syrup (0g carbs)
-Crystal Lite
-1 Cup Coffee

Lunch:
-Low Carb Bar (2-3g Net carbs)
-Piece of Atkins bread (3g net carbs) w/ cheese
-Diet Coke

Dinner:
-Artichoke
-Salad
-Some kind of meat (steak, chicken, lamb....)
-Crystal Lite

Snacks:
-Low Carb Bar (2-3g Net carbs)
-Carbolite chocolate bar (2g Net carbs)
-Atkins shake (1-2g Net carbs)


I'd love some feedback from everyone!
Thanks!
