Last year I tried atkins and stayed on it for 5 months, loved it although I lost no weight! Eventually I found out I was hypothyroid. After a year of taking thyroid I have tried every diet and all of them make me feel awful around the 3rd day. A few weeks ago I finally got out of denial and went to the dr to find out what the problem is. I told him atkins is my favorite diet and he agreed to help me get on with doing it, starting at 30 carbs per day and a 1500 calorie meal plan. I started last week but had to quit day 6 because of some blood tests I need to be carbed up for. I'm restarting Monday after the tests and wanted to feel better this time around.

I had headaches, tiredness, constipation and diarrhea. How long does this last? What are the best remedies?
