And Dan in the first 10 days here were my "health improvements".

Marked increase in lethargy
Terrible headaches
Sick to the stomach
Constantly hungry

Now, at 33, I have high blood pressure too *oh joy*

These are just what I remember.
This diet is NOT for everyone!

I'm so happy it works for some, but let's be intellectually honest enough to say that there are some who despite following it by Dr. Atkins book, it does not work for and brings about some alarming side effects. This does not degrade what it has done for you, but you do no good for this diet by saying it is meant for everyone.

There have been several threads on Atkins and in every one I've read someone always warns it's not for every single person. We will soon know if there is a serious side effects as I have heard there are several million people on a low carb diet. As amatter of fact so many people are trying it that there is a shortage of beef and sales of products with high carbs are slipping. I am sorry you had problems but I am also sorry to see so many obese people with diabetes..
