    Hello...I'm new

    Hello,

    I'm a 35 year of mum of 2. Atkins has always, always been really effective for me because I have an insatiable appetite. I just can't do low-cal diets, I'm starving ALL the time. Maybe its something to do with my hypothyroidism condition but I tend to blame that for everything lol

    So here I am again, I haven't got a huge amount to lose because I've been (attempting) to keep low-carb but its been creeping up. I'm aiming for 14-16 lbs in total, The first 6 lbs have gone already (yay) week one and am busy working on the rest.

    Having said that I AM having a slight problem....Maybe TMI for some peeps but I have the most hideous, alarming, very short notice type diarrhoea ? Has anybody else experienced this? or is it just me??

    Thanks

    Weclome to the board, C! And congrats on your loss so far!

    Your problem may be due to your change in diet, especially if you're now eating a lot of broccoli and cauliflower. Your body sometimes needs time to adjust. Or maybe you are catching a cold. I hope you're over it soon, whatever it is! Good luck to you!

       It's not about the results. Its about the process.

        When I first started I had a week of fun in the bathroom....it stopped as soon as my body got use to the things I was eating and the foods I was eating. But if it continues I'd call the doctor!

        Good luck to you.
