I lost 6 pounds fast in the first week on a low-carb diet; however after that I stalled for a few days. During the last few days I have been taking protein bars that advertise on the nutrition label as having only 2 grams carbohydrate. However I used the Hidden Carb Counter on this site; turns out there are 18 hidden carbs for a total of 20 carbs! Well, in a day or two I will know if eliminating these bars from my diet will result in any weight loss. Meanwhile I am still eating cheese just for the variety, but for today I will also not eat the cheese. I am very motivated to lose about 40 pounds of weight!

One thing I have noticed on this diet is that even though I am stalled, I am not actually regaining any of the weight, and that is a big plus. This is the only diet ever (and I have been on a few) where I did not gain weight after losing it.

Hopefully, I will see success soon!
