Another Atkins Newbie--HI

[SoniaSD]

Hi, my name is Sonia and I'm sort of new to Atkins. I'm on my 4th day, going onto my 5th day, of induction. I'm 23 years old and did Atkins once, for a week, when I was 21 and saw great results. This time around, however, I feel induction is going a little differently. I remember the first time around, induction was as everyone describes it: headaches, fatigue, nausea, etc. This time, I feel more anxious. Anyone else experience this? I do excercise and make sure to reference the carb counter before eating something, what would cause this?

Anywho, I'm glad this time around I found this site. I read everyone's profiles/intoductions and feel motivated to continue and gain the results so many have reached. I hope to contribute more and keep you all updated on my progress.

Welcome!!! Yes, I did experience some anxiety, not sure if it was carb withdrawls, or not. But it did get better. Was like I was worried all the time or something.. (probably worried where my next meal was going to be) Ha! Anxiety was replaced by optimism and energy... Just stick to it.

Thank you nursemistyford. I think you are right because 2 days later I felt less edgy and energetic like Romanuts says. Thank you all.
