Hi All,

I have been on Atkins for 3 weeks and have lost 13.5 lb.

I keep reading that everyone feels a bit out of sorts for a few days and then terrific from them on. I had three really dreadful weeks - dizzy, cranky, muddle-headed, sleepy and pretty nauseous.

(I had been more or less vegetarian for a few years and was suffering from lentil and brown rice withdrawal - getting used to that much meat in my diet might have been a big shock to my system.

Yesterday would be the first time I really felt human. The day before that I started taking a calcium supplement. Does anyone know if this could be related? I take minerals, multivitamins & glucosomine & chondritin. Is there anything else I should be taking?

TIA.
