First Time Almost a Month
I have absolutely, diligently kept my carbs under 20, my macros are right on, I exercise 7 days a week, I drink 80 oz of water. I also intermittent fast 16/8 4 days a week. I lost 6 pounds week 1, 1 pound week 2 and nothing thereafter. I have added apple cider vinegar as well. Ketosis no longer registers. I am at a loss. Anyone experience this?

I started on July 9th. I was extremely diligent staying under 18 carbs as well. I did IF 18/6 as well. I was drinking 96oz of water a day. I also walked 5 Miles everday most of the week. I stalled as well the 3rd or so week. I found I had 5o adjust my carb intake up and down a bit. I was doing 18 carbs for 3-4 days, then I would go up to 40 carbs. I think my body thought I was starving. After doing that adjusting, I stalled again. I really evaluated everything. I found out, I was eating some sugar free items that were not so sugar free. I eliminated all sources of sugar except an occasional diet soda. I stayed put. So I decided on Monday Sept 2 of this week to try Carnivore for a week just to see if I could pull myself out of my stall. I think I narrowed down another culprit. Cheese. I lost 4 pounds in 2 days. This diet is sometimes trickey. There are certain sweeteners that are problematic. Research those if you are using artificial sweeteners. Good luck!
