Hi There,

I believe it is advisory not to follow the Atkins Plan while you are breast-feeding..to kick the Atkins Theroy in you really need to do the induction to detox your system.
But if you was to start low-carbing now to some extent, u could go for it 100% when u stop breast-feeding.
Also i must ask is your goal realistic of 100lbs (7st1) is this ideal for your height etc?
Good Luck.

Thanks for your advise I will only do low carb for now untill I Finish breastfeeding . Just in answer to you question of my goal weight being unrealistic it is, I have to admit I took a guess on converting kilos to pounds anyway it is wrong I looked it up and it is meant to be 130 anyway thanks again lisa. :wave:
