Atkins diet blog

well i was going to start on the challange..but at this point it wont do me
any good…i had bronchitis…which turned into pneumonia… i’ve been very sick…and now they’ve put me on prednisone…so i am expecting
to gain quite a bit of weight since its a 14 day course gained some back and i know its from that…because i havent been cheating..so
far i’ve gained 6 pounds back..which is discouraging..but i know i have to
take the medicine or i wont be able to breathe…which would be even worse. In
addition i had some blood tests done last week…my blood sugar was high..which
caused alarm in my doctor for two reasons…A..i’ve been on atkins 6 weeks now
so i’ve had NO sugar in my diet at all..and B..Diabetes is heavily in both
sides of my family..in addition to the blood sugar being high..my thyroid was
very low…so tonite i have to fast after 8pm..then go to the hospital tomorrow
morning around 9 and have the levels drawn..and a full thyroid panel including
Hashimoto’s disease, which i also have in my family..and then Friday i will
meet with the doc to discuss the results and see if i do in fact have diabetes
and/or a thyroid issue…this is very very upsetting to me..i havent even a
clue if i can still continue Atkins if i have either or both of these
things…if anyone has any suggestions or experiences with any of this…it
would be
appreciated
Thanks
