[QUOTE="diadeb, post: 289026, member: 28477"] Thanks to everyone for their advice. I am following Atkins Induction and eat between 10-20g carbs per day but after 2 weeks I have only lost 2 pounds, according to the bathroom scales. I really don't feel any thinner, eat about 1000-1550 calories and drink at least 2 litres fluids. Admittedly, I have just been told that my Levothyroxine needs to be increased but I would have thought that I would have lost a little more weight than I have. If I keep the portein down to about 15% and carbs at 5% then how do I get 80% from fat?. I know of course thta there is fat in foodstuffs but I am having trouble increasing tha fats without increasing the calories and of course Atkins says that there is no need to measure anything but carbs, thanks, Deb x [/QUOTE]
