1) One of the most common problems that low carbers face is boredom. With the same type of food being presented every single day, it is natural for individuals to get bored. They get so bored that they feel like vomiting at the sight of a low carb meal. Whoever said that low carb meals need to be boring?

There are hundreds of tasty low carb recipes that you can cook in order to add spice to your menu. You can even experiment with your existing meal plans.
2) Most individuals don't even survive the few days of a low carb diet program. The reason is that once they start having a low carb diet, they face the obvious side effects such as headaches, nausea, dizziness, and super low energy. On internet one can find a lot of information, in tons. Many people give up because of these symptoms. Here is what you can do to escape this trap: for the first few days, preferably for the entire first week, eat meals every two or three hours, even if you don't feel hungry so often.
3) Some people believe that since they are on a low carb diet, they have a free license to eat whatever they want regardless of its calorie content. They think that in case of a low carb diet, it is the carbs, not the calories, which count. It is a wrong notion, because both calories and carbs count in a low carb diet.

What happens is that after six months of steady weight loss, these people suddenly find out that their weight has been stalled to a halt. Here is what you can do to escape this trap: needless to say, you should avoid high-calorie foods.
