Well, weight loss is not linear, some weeks you will lose, some you won't, some you may even gain. TOTM? Anecdotally some people get a bit of a stall around the 4-5 week mark but the only thing that will sort that out is to keep going, maybe tweak a few bits in your diet.

What are you eating?

It's very, very common in weeks 3 and 4 of a low carb diet for your weight loss to stop. But from here on, it should get going again.

You know it works, as you've already lost 5lbs! Which is brilliant.

Just keep on doing what you were doing in the first week and you should be fine.
