Hi Dube,
Before you decide to throw in the towel, why not record for at least a few days on Fitday. I know it's a pain, but it really does help you to see what's wrong. You need to know your fat/protein/carb ratio (s/b about 70/25/5%) and there's a chance your calories are too low.

I can't see how 20 carbs a day would cause you to gain weight, if most of them came from green veggies and salads.

BTW when did you lose the 10 lbs? Was it during the first few weeks? If so, you may just be going thru the same mini-stall a lot of us go thru while our bodies adjust.

My Mom, who is 82, started LC 7 weeks ago. She lost 13 lbs in the first two weeks, then nothing for the next 3 weeks, then 3 lbs the following week, and 1 lb this past week.

I hope you can hang in there, because it does work.
