Hi all,
I've been on Atkins for almost 3 months now, and I've been pleased with the weight loss. My energy level is good, and the diet fits in fairly well with my lifestyle.

A month ago I came down with food poisoning, and I'm only just now getting back to normal, digestion-wise. But I'm still having trouble digesting anything that is too protein-rich. Now, whenever I eat eggs I have terrible stomach pains and nausea. Nuts are too harsh at this point, as well as some of the heavier meats. Too much lettuce and salad also seem to have a bad reaction. I've been eating hot drinks, chicken, soups, cooked veggies, and cottage cheese for a few weeks now. But every time I try to introduce eggs or salad back into my diet it's a disaster.

Since most of the easily-digested foods that a doctor would recommend are now restricted to me, (ie. apple sauce, bananas, toast, rice, carbs) I'm concerned that I will really hurt my health if I keep putting too many demands on my digestive tract by sticking to Atkins right now. Reversely, I am concerned that I'll never get back on track if I lapse on the diet now.

Does anyone have any suggestions for easily-digestible, Atkins-acceptable foods? Has anyone else been in this predicament before? I'd appreciate your feedback.
Thanks, Joan Winters
