I've been on a low carb diet for about a month now. (under 40 carbs).... anyways in that month i've lost almost 10 pounds, i see no change in size, and i see a small difference in body fat. What's the deal? Was it all water weight?
 
I was at 173 pounds, now im 165.

Breakfast: 6:45
2 egg whites (33cals, 1 carb, 7 protein)
2 whole eggs (185 cals, 14 fat, 1 carb, 13 protein)
1 bowl oatmeal (135 cals, 3 fat, 25 carbs, 3 protein)
coffee

Lunch: 11:30am
8oz Grilled chicken breast (340 cals, 7 fat, 64 carbs)

After School: 3:30
6.5oz Can Tuna (195 cals, 1 fat, 43 prot)

Post Workout: 6:00
Shake:
Isopure Protein (200 calories, 50 protein)
Wheat Germ (100 cals, 2 fat, 12 carb, 8 protein)
2 tbsp Flaxseed Oil (240 cals, 27 fat)

30 mintes before bedtime: 10:30
Isopure Shake (200 calories, 50 protein)
 
Most of the weight was lost the first week, now it's stable.

dmx... i weight 165... my BMR is 1650 calories, which is what i am getting daily....

hey wiz..Your BMR isn't 1650..hate to break the bad news to you. it's Bodyweight times 12..not 10. And bodyweight times 12 is only for people who do absolutely NOTHING but lay in bed.

Start boosting cals back up to boyweight times 12 for 2 weeks..See how it goes. If still nothing, then go x 13 for a week.

Also...Switch around your carbs to having them post workout only. or maybe consider a TKD and have them preworkout.

By the way, don't have meals that consist of ONLY protein. Either make em' protein and fat, or protein and carbs.

make the breakfast protein and carbs. lunch:protein and fat. pre and post workout: protein and carbs. Then the last meal, protein and fat. I don't think you should be ahving THAT much protein before bed tho. Maybe 20 grams of casein (slow digesting) and a t spoon of flax.
 
Your diet may need a little tweaking. It is pretty basic but you can make it work:

1. Cook your breakfeast eggs with butter, add some bacon/suasage
2. Save the oatmeal for pre workout, especially if you are doing weight training.
3. Cook your chicken with oil, olive oil is really good for this.
4. Tuna is good and quick, try changing it to tuna w/oil or add mayo.
5. Protein with flax oil is good.
6. Dont see a dinner listed in your meals? I like having steak for dinner.
7. Bedtime snack, you can stick with the protein shake but may want to add some half/half or heavy whipping cream to help slow the digestion. I like getting my protein from real food, Cottage Cheese/Flax Seed before bed is good.
8. Drink Water, at least 1 gallon of h20. People on low carb diets think the headaches, confusion is due to the lack of carbs but it can also be due to dehydration.
9. As far as fatburners, it is a little early in the diet to add them but green tea/yerba mate tea may help.

Hope this helps.

I figured im consuming too much protein at night. Also, whats the best brand bacon, sausage for the morning? My mom always makes fatty bacon so i never eat it.

Whats a good preworkout meal? I occasionally eat a banana or a salad with chicken cutlet
