The first week or so of doing Atkins, I was pleased with seeing results and could not believe it was working for me. By the second week and third week, I was losing so fast it was scaring me. So I guess emotionally, when I started literally "melting", it scared me. I'm not really sure why, although I do recall posting about it on another forum. From the responses, it seems a lot of people went through a stage of being nervous about their weightloss. The reasons ran the gamut from being nervous about the attention they would get from the opposite sex after losing weight to being afraid that they would be a different person if they weren't overweight.

I think being heavy can really have a huge impact on someone's life and so can losing the weight.

Just hang tight...the feelings will pass and you will be over the moon
