    Extreme dieting like low carb diets come with a side effect…. It’s called metabolic slowdown…. Even though you lost a lot of weight the first time… Sure a lot of it was fat …. but a good portion was also muscle… Losing muscle equals slowing your metabolism….
    The only way around that now is to build your metabolism back up…

    Which low carb diet are you on? The carbohydrate addiction diet works best for me and I have lost weight on it but the best thing for me I have no inbetween meal cravings for carbs.

    Don’t get off the diet, don’t stray, a diet is a life choice, you have to stick with it forever. If you try a fad diet, you’ll lose weight at first, but if you get off the diet, you’ll gain more than you originally lost. Weight watchers is a really healthy one that works, if you work at it, just don’t cheat EVER.

    Wow, congrats on losing the weight! Sorry, but I don’t really have any suggestions on how to lose any more weight especially since you are on a low carb diet. 120 sounds pretty healthy, so I wouldn’t worry about it.
