I never heard of anyone get SICK starting atkins. weak and tired yes,
but not sick.

I've lost 50# on atkins, gained back about 10 over the holidays
(couldn't resist!) and am slowly getting it back off again (not getting
as much exercise, but wait til Oshkosh...).

Any diet must be a lifestyle change, not lose your weight then go back
to your old eating habits that made you fat in the first place.
