Question doc says I should quit Atkins

Well, I have been having extreme fatique and terrible problems with my leg muscles - weakness, cramping. Finally went to reg. doc and he took all kinds of tests, pottasium, magnesium, thyroid, etc., all came back normal. He says the Atkins diet could be the culprit, he said my body could be robbing my muscles trying to get the energy it used to get from carbs. Any thoughts on this, anyone? Since I have only lost MAYBE two pounds, I am thinking maybe this isn't the right plan for me. But now I am totally lost. I can't go back to the way I used to eat, too much junk. After five weeks, I am so used to Atkins, but I really don't have any energy.

HELP ME PLEASE, SOMEBODY!!!!!!!!

Thanks everyone!!!!!!!

-Jess
