actually, I went to my GP, and I told him that I'm going on the Atkins, and I actually asked him if it was safe and stuff. and he said that he doesn't object to it. So I asked him if it would be alrite for me to do it, and he said yes.

Did you happen to mention to your doctor that you are trying to get down to 110 lbs/50 kg? Somehow I doubt that you did, or any doctor worth his salt would have tried to persuade you to substantially increase your goal weight.

Whether or not you have an eating disorder at the moment (and I sincerely hope you don't), by aiming at such a low weight for your height of 173 cms, you are definitely risking an ED, not to mention your future health.

Please consider raising your goal weight to a healthier level.
