I am an experienced yo-yo dieter/exerciser. worked my butt off last year to lose 20 lbs and had gained it back in 6 months while exercising 4 times a week. Found out I had a hypothyroid which equals almost non -existent metabolism. I have been on the verge of tears all morning since getting on the scale and seeing I have lost only 2 lbs since starting Atkins 3 weeks ago, and that is probably just water.

atkins book says hypothyroid people may have problems but he didn't say it would be a complete waste of time even trying. So sad cuz I have really stuck to this stupid diet. Wondering what I am doing wrong.

How much did you lose the first 3 weeks?
