Default 3 months, no weight loss HELP!!

Is it possible that some people can't lose on this WOE? I was on induction for 2 months with a 1lb weight loss. I decided Jan. 1 to add a few more carbs. Maybe I needed more variety. I still have stayed the same. And no inches lost. I measure myself every week. I am at about 24-28 carbs per day. The only thing I added that is not on induction are a few peanuts each day and Flax-o-meal. Here is a sample of what I eat:


1 serving Flax-o-meal lo-carb cereal (12 carbs, 10 are fiber, =2carbs) with 1 T. butter & 2 splenda.
1 decaf with 1 T. cream & 1 splenda
4 oz chicken breast with 2T blue cheese (1 carb for 2T)
2 C lettuce, 1/2 a green onion, 1 oz cheese, 2 T blue cheese dressing
10-15 peanuts
4-6 oz of meat
1-2 oz of cheese for a snack
90 oz water
1 diet rite

I go to the gym 4 days a week. I do 30 minutes weight training & 45 mins cardio.
I am 33 5'3" and 137lbs. 31.5% body fat.

Am I missing something?? I have read the book many times & been reading this forum for 2 months to get ideas about mistakes I may be making. I try to keep my calories at about 1600. Is that too high??? I thought we didn't have to count calories. Oh yea, my ketostix always turn the lightest shade of pink, so I think I am in ketosis & have been for 3 months.

HELP!!!
