We picked up a magazine in the store today ( First--a woman's magazine), which has an excellent article (The Complete Women's Guide to Atkins) and how this way of eating works differently for women than it does for men. I don't think we can blame all the problems people run into losing weight on getting sloppy with their eating habits. Basically what many women have run into is that they need to tweak their eating plan occasionally to have good results.

Seems to me that energy balance is the key issue, such a small difference in carb count wouldn't matter.
If for some reason ketosis is the key to a particular person losing weight (and given an equal number of calories a person might stall when out of ketosis) I suppose adding just enough carbs to kick someone out of ketosis might be it. Seems unlikely though.

This I agree with, too. One carbohydrate may not make the difference between ketosis or not, but five sure can by upsetting an individual's particular balance, and quite simply many don't lose weight without that advantage.
