Hi,
I'm new here and I've been on Atkins only 9 weeks. I've really learned a lot from all the posts I've read but now I have a question of my own. This week I've started with an upset stomach when I eat more then really small meals. I even got sick once which is the 2nd time in about 15 years so it isn't something that happens to me very easily. For the most part I don't feel bad except when I eat. I am eating the same things that I've been eating for the past 9 weeks though after doing some reading here I had upped my vegetable intake and added 1/4 cup nuts a day though I usually haven't eaten the nuts when I feel ill. I seem to do alright if I stick to really small meals for example 1 chicken thigh and less then a cup of vegetables. This is a little annoying however since I have to eat frequently this way if I don't want to convince my body I'm starving. Has anyone else ever had a similar problem and if so what caused it/ how did you solve it? I will be really greatful for any help someone might be able to offer. Thanks in advance.

Welcome, Elisa.

What you are describing is not something that is associated with this way of eating. I would suggest that you see your dr. about this issue.

Meantime, make yourself at home!

Elisa, how's your bathroom regularity, if you know what I mean. Are you kinda constipated? Are you drinking enough water? Are you eating a lot of fatty foods? Are you getting enough fiber?

All of the above seems fine. I'm not constipated, I drink my water and get lots of fiber and only eat fatty foods about once a week when I try out some new low carb casserole instead of sticking to meat and veggies. I'll give it another week and if it doesn't stop on its own I'll go meet my new Dr. Thank you for responding.

Let us know how you're doing, Elisa! Hope all turns out well and that you're feeling better soon.
