Default Not sleeping

I know this isn't related to atkins, but for the last three weeks, I 'm not sleeping. I fall asleep no problem and sleep sound until around 1 a.m. then I fall asleep and wake up every twenty to thirty minutes this goes on for the rest of the night. Last night was the worse, I couldn't sleep at all between 1-3.30. This is catching up with me. By afternoon I have circles under my eyes and I and so so sleepy behind my desk. I only drink one cup of coffee in the a.m., so I know its not that. I eat only a light supper at night before I go to bed and I"ve always done that so its not that.

I'm no more stressed then I have ever been. I can't take over the counter sleep aids it makes my heart race. Advils help some but not completely. The more this goes the tireder I'm becoming and I don't want to feel bad since I"ve come such a far way with atkins since Feb.

Any advice on this. I asked a coworker and she said just get used to it. Then later she made me mad and said its probably my diet. Yeh right, I've been eating like this for months why just the past three weeks have I been having sleeping problems.
