Well, week one has gone by with ease. The sick and tired feelings I have had are past me now and I feel back to normal. I was expecting a huge rush of energy, but it has been a slow, gradual increase. Monday I went back to the weight clinic for a refill of my "legal speed" and a weigh-in and was surprised to find out I had dropped 14 pounds. It has been a month since I last weighed there and some of that could have come off before I started Atkins, but I really didn't do much in the way of diet or exercise until I started the diet on the 4th week. If I have that much of a loss next month...
