It’s always been speculated that atkins may not be the healthiest solution.  Having watched what many people eat on the diet it is no wonder.

A few weeks ago a 40-year old woman was placed in intensive care for Ketoacidosis.  She apparently followed the Atkin’s diet closely and even took the suppliment pills which most people tend to skip.

I haven’t been able to find anything that says what she did wrong.. if anything.  Most of the information I find says Ketoacidosis can be avoided by drinking enough water.

So what’s the problem?  I don’t know!  Reguardless, Atkins may not be for everyone. If you do decide to give it a try… drink lots and lots of water!

I’ve been pretty down on myself lately.  I’ve had a lot of fat-ugly days and some slight depression.  I pretty much gave up on the whole diet thing for a bit there and didn’t think I’d actually post anything again.

Besides that the past week I’ve been sick and just didn’t care about much of anything!

I’ve made bad choices in the past 2 weeks but I’ve also made good choices so not all is lost.  I’ve actually lost another pound…which is great.  I had hoped it was more since I was sick and that is always a good time to lose weight since appetite doesn’t tend to be an issue.

The one thing I do realize I have to work on (I say this a lot don’t I?) is that I tend to pork out on Sunday nights before my weigh in.  Not on purpose…that is just how it seems to happen.  It’s the end of the week and no one feels like cooking.   Last Sunday was a buffet… Oi!

Lets see how this week goes!
