Well, I'm back on Atkins!

I made a deal with my doctor that I would try it for six months; he has said that after six months, he'll recheck my blood and urine work and see what happens.

What prompted my decision to go back on?, Well, when I went off Atkins and back onto my 1700 calories per day diabetic diet, my mood changed; I had ups and downs; I felt worse than I did on Atkins; I thought about food and felt hungry all of the time; but worst of all, I put on 3 lbs! Argh!!

The only improvement was related to my running, which I found I had much more strength and endurance for.

I'm looking forward to getting through induction again!
