Default Stall busting

It wasn't even a stall. It was just 2 months of no progress whatsoever. 20 EC and 1700 kCAL/day, a full Bikram yoga series (-750 kCAL) 3x week, and I lost maybe 4 pounds and zero inches. Seriously. I'm nowhere within shouting distance of a reasonable goal weight, and flirting dangerously with T2 diabetes, so something has to give.

So now, day 3 of the 5-day Atkins fat fast. It's pretty horrible. I bike 2 miles each way to and from the bus stop as part of my daily work commute, but have no extra extra energy and yoga is out of the question. I don't feel hungry, but am not sleeping well and wake up dreaming about food. Blech.

Oh, yeah, and I've lost 4.5 pounds. 2 days to go and then back to the luxurious normal regime! If that gets me back to no progress, I'll do a 5-day fat fast every month until I get to goal. Anyone else do this? Thoughts? Ideas?

Thanks in advance.
