I feel great! One thing I've noticed so far - usually at dinner - even when I'm not STUFFING myself by ANY means - but when I have carbs, I usually feel run down and ready to go to sleep...and I can feel that I'm "full" because of the carbs I ate...
But - having had NO carbs - no rice, no potatoes, etc...I don't have that feeling! I also haven't had a night yet (again, it's only been four days) - but in the past four days I haven't had to go straight to the bathroom (sorry, tmi! lol) - but seriously - the MAIN reason I started atkins was that I am SO sick and tired of - right after a meal - going straight to the bathroom and staying in there for like a good half hour! That's what has been happening to me for the past - maybe 6 months? Easily 4 times a week?
I know it's the medication my doc put me on (metformin - for my insulin resistance) but it's BECAUSE of the heavy carbs that the metformin says "nope you can't function for the rest of the night!".
But in the FOUR days I've given up carbs, I haven't had ONE issue yet!
I seriously think that four days, for me, is a record! lol.
Here's to five - six - fifteen - thirty - you name it, I hope to feel like this forever! 
that is all. thanks!
