Hi I have just joined this forum in the hope there is someone out there who can help.
I was on Atkins many years ago with great success, however after more children etc I put on weight again.
I have an underactive thyroid and on thyroxine. I started the new Atkins in The middle of Feb this year and I have had NO loss at all.
I drink water mainly in abundance with the odd tea with a tiny bit of double cream. My breakfast usually consists of scrambled egg and montary jack cheese or bacon and egg. Usually my lunch is chicken or salmon and salad and dinner is chicken, beef, pork or similar with salad or fried onion, mushrooms, asparagus or similar. I take chromium picolinate 200, co-enzyme q10 120mg, multi vit without iron and laxatives at night. I also need a lot of pain killers for my back. I have done the ketone test strips and I am not in ketosis. Don't know what I am doing wrong this time and desperately need to loose this weight. Hope someone can help. Thanx
