Thank you so much Merpig - for posting this here. It's something I really needed to read, because my husband has just discovered a 'thyroid problem' - and we've been on low carb for quite awhile.

Also - I stalled out too. On regular Atkins. When I added in more produce and started walking daily - the weight loss picked up again. When I joined the gym and began a weight training routine - I needed to eat more food, I stalled out for a bit and then dropped even more weight.

Things that worked in the beginning did *not* continue to work.

If I had just paid closer attention to DANDR - I might not have stalled out for so long. I didn't exactly make sure that 'most' of my carbs were coming from vegetables, and furthermore - I didn't move up the carb ladder. In fact, I went in the opposite direction, which worked...for a very short time.

Thanks again for posting this - I just printed it out - because it contains some very good advice
