Looking for suggestions…been on Carb Nite since May 13, very strict, sticking to meal plans in book and haven't lost a pound and calipers haven't moved either!!!!What variables do I need to look at manipulating in order to get this regime to work? I've included bumped up fat content in diet, ensured I get 7 - 8 hour sleep, drinking 3 - 4 litres of water each day, included brief meditation to reduce stress, weight training and hiking 4 - 5 times a week, did unresticted cab nite and strict carb nite....I'm so frustrated! Has anyone run into this? Any suggestions?

i'd drop the breakfast meal altogether and honestly if you feel fine i'd even drop the mid morning shake.. for me i only have a tablespoon of coconut oil which keeps me going fine till lunch...if not keep the shake at mid morning but drop the breakfast. Also I very highly recommend to try dropping wheat from your diet completely and see how that treats you.. you also are eating a lot of cream i'd replace at least half of that with coconut oil
Worth a try – thanks for the help!

no problem.. fasting for 12-16 hours can do wonders for losing weight as long as in the time you are not fasting you get a good amount of calories in.. for me my last meal is around 9:30pm then aside from a tablespoon of coconut oil in the morning i don't eat again until about 11:45am. Also eating the extra coconut oil helps your body create more ketones which will not only aid in fat burning but brain function and feeling alert and helps keep the hunger at bay until lunch on a ULC type diet like this.
