AFter about four months the diet doesn't seem to be working for me. I'm not gaining, but not losing anymore either.

Adding the carbs made it difficult for me. Will try to lose the last ten pounds on the Atkins.

Just curious...when you say adding carbs made it difficult, do you mean that you had cravings again, or that you think that's what stopped your weight loss?

I'm expecting to have some plateaus, especially as I get closer to goal (I'm not really that far off anyway...), but so far I've been lucky...averaging 1-2 pounds a week. I haven't added back all that many carbs yet...mostly oatmeal and fruit and a very occasional piece of whole grain bread...so I'm wondering how that will go.
