Default Need help

Hi everyone ! I've been lc'ing since Jan 05 & lost 10 lbs in the first few months; but stalled in summer. I also decided to give up tofu & morning star type products due to concerns that soy can cause reduced thyroid activity & maybe breast cancer (I use tempeh though-fermented soy is supposedly ok). If that wasn't enough, I am working on cutting out all sweetners except stevia. So being a vegetarian & doing all of the above, my diet has become so highly restricted that after a couple of months of it, I have slowly started eating more carbs (even sugar). So this morning I weighed in at 135.5; now I'm panicking & want to catch this trend & reverse it before I gain back the entire 10 lbs I lost.

anyone have any ideas for me ? All you veggies out there, how much tofu & soy products are you consuming each day ?

I will add that I'm unable to add any exercise in my life. I have a 2-year old & I work full time
