It happens. (One of the reason why I track my progress through clothes and not the scale) In the long run it will be fine. Track everything, drink water and eat enough food 

I've never been a big eater and I may have slipped into the "starvation mode". I dropped all pasta, bread and such that I started eating again after my trip to Italy. Plus my husband and son brew beer that is amazing and I dropped that too. I seriously thought I would have 2 weeks of significant loss before I started struggling. But a TOTAL of 7 lbs in 3 weeks. To me that's pathetic. I always kick off with like 14 lbs in 2 weeks then slow down. Menopause SUCKS. 

Yup slow down of your metabolism happens. You may have to rethink things. Some things that worked before may not work now. It is very easy to put on weight. I think all you have to do is look at food. But that does not mean that you should try starvation. Balance is still good. Are you doing strick Keto or just cutting some carbs with calories counting? 

I'm pretty hard core low carb. 20-30 a day.  

Every pound lower is to be celebrated! Good job!
