I eat something every 4 hours or so.

Within 2 hours of waking up (breakfast): 2 mozzarella sticks

3-4 hours after: a little chicken and cauliflower in an alfredo sauce (made my melting sour cream, parmesan cheese, and butter together).

3-4 hours after: 2 cups lettuce with a little French dressing made with splenda (0 cals, 0 carbs)

3-4 hours after: 5 or 6 chicken wings in a 0 carb mild sauce and a little bleu(blue?) cheese for dipping

3-4 hours after: maybe a hotdog or maybe a can of tuna with mayo

And that's my day. Carbs intake is pretty much NEVER over 20 net carbs. I recently cut out sunflower seeds ... and my weight loss has slowed.
I think you may be eating too little. Two mozzarella sticks for breakfast? That is what my left arm has.

I thought there was a lot of dairy in your diet. You may want to think about that. If you are not over 4 oz of cheese that is fine.

And only two cups of lettuce? That is not much for real vegetables there. Lettuce is just solid green water. Do eat other vegetables too. It does not look like most of your carbs are coming from vegetables. And they should.

But I think you are doing pretty well. A slowing is fairly normal. But it is all going in the right direction though.
