I’ve been on a low carb way of eating for three weeks now. This is not my first low-carb rodeo and I’ve successfully lost weight previously doing this. However, this time I lost the usual whoosh of water weight in the first week (5lb, great!) but not a thing since. My measurements are also static. Where am I going wrong?? I know this is a marathon and not a sprint – I have around 4st to lose but I’m a bit flummoxed by the lack of loss.

As an example, this is what I’ve eaten the last couple of days:
B – scrambled egg (made with butter) with a tomato and an avocado
L – leftover quorn and veggie curry with saag paneer
D – turkey chilli with lettuce wraps, cheese and avocado.


B – scrambled egg (made with butter) with a tomato
L – Aubergine parmigiana with green salad (dressed with olive oil)
D – Chicken shwarma with roasted peppers and broccoli

I had until today also been having the slightest dash of milk in my coffee, but have now stopped that and will have a dash of heavy cream when at home and black when elsewhere. I also wonder if my water intake was a bit on the low side so I’ve upped that.

Can anyone suggest where I might be doing something else that I might have missed that could be affecting my weight loss. I’m so motivated to stick to this at the moment, I just cannot understand why I’m not seeing a result!
