  • Doctors appt?

    Should I go to my doctor before I start atkins, or at my 6 week mark?

    I want to be cautious but not petrified. KNOCK ON WOOD, I have not had any problems. I was three weeks into my diet, when I gained 5 lbs back after a 1 1/2 week stop of atkins.

    I am deciding to go back on tommorow morning, but should I make an appointment this week?

      Dr. Atkins wrote that we should go before we begin any weight loss regimen not only for routine blood work but for a general physical exam as well.
