Restarting Atkins. I'm gaining too much on

[stlsweeti]

I low carbed in the past. I started at 150 and lost 12 pounds. At that point, I thought it would be a good idea to try to phase in the Weight Watchers program. I've gone down hill ever since. I'm back up to 147 pounds, but the thing that bothers me more than the weight is how messed up my stomach is again (just like it was before I low carbed.) I literally suffer from bloat and pains EVERY single day, virtually all day long. When I was on Atkins, my stomach felt normal for the first time in years. I just want to feel good again and I obviously never will consuming carbs.

I think my start date will be Friday since I only have low fat foods in my house and nothing to eat for this diet.

I too tried to phase in low fat/semi lo-carb diet after losing 35 pounds doing atkins, that was over a year ago. The beauty of it is that I can appreciate what a great way of eating Atkins is, instead of thinking I am "suffering" or "missing out" on all the other junk food. I'm sure you'll do much better this time around. Good Luck!!!

I would think with your symptoms you're suffering from some kind of food intolerence. Atkins is, evidently, the way to go for you. Good luck!
