Hi I just joined the forums. I used to eat low carb and maintained my weight at 150 then got bombarded with how unhealthy it is and stopped now I weigh 191 and I feel just awful. I could really use some suport to get back on track

Hi and welcome! Feel free to browse the "research and media" section, where there is plenty of discussion of the myths that exist about low carbing.

Feel free to start a journal if you're like us to cheer you on.

Best of luck to you!

Welcome to the board. So sorry to hear that you were disuaded from LCing by the myths and misconceptions about it. I have been on LC for most of the last 4 years and all my tests are normal and have always been. I have had 2 major surgeries in the last 2.5 years and the tests were always in a very healthy range. I also did LC about 25 years ago but quit and regained. Darn.

If you have any concerns, please ask questions and we'll help find answers for you. Your kidneys and liver will be just fine on Atkins. And so will the rest of you.
