Indeed, Jessy that is very likely the problem. Are you eating vegetables too, and salads?? Those things are low in carbs, and are very important because they have FIBER. You need to have fiber every day, and of course the water will help too. Spinach, kale, beet greens (but not the beets!!), broccoli, rabé, cauliflower ...... all kinds of lettuce, mushrooms, red and green bell peppers ... these are all very low in carbs. Dr. Atkins allows either 2 big salads, or 1 salad + a serving of cooked lowcarb vegetable every day.
