Thinking of making the change to weight watchers....
I lost about 20 pounds total with Atkins this year and went through stalls also. I lost 15 pounds then stalled. I tried a carb up day which didn't work. So I signed up for WW. A friend of mine started WW at the beginning of the year and she is down 30 pounds. No cheating and no flex points. For me, switching diets caused the scale to go up about 5 pounds (which is all water weight). I couldn't handle it so I quit WW and went back to Atkins. I lost the 5 pounds that I put back on and stalled again. I took a carb up week this time instead of a day. The pounds started coming off again and I lost an addititional 4 pounds. It seems I stall on Atkins every 10 days or so.

Now that I'm nearing my goal weight, I am working out. But I can't lift weights with the little carbs from Atkins, so I have switched to counting calories. The only reason I'm not doing WW is I don't want to pay for it.

You could either try a regular eating week to break your stall (the scale will go up 3-5 pounds but then you'll lose it all plus more), or if you don't mind paying for WW then try that (scale will go up 3-5 pounds of water then you'll start losing). Or just do it the free way and count calories.
