Yeah Yeah yeah

Went to the dr to find out why I am horrably swollen yesterday. Mentioned I
was on atkins and she said IMEDIATLY Oh well obvioulsy atkins is causing
kidney problems from too much protien so stop atkins and here is a water
pill. She did blood work to prove that I was killing myself from doing
atkins just to find out I am fine Taking the water pills though. I keep
hearing South Beach is a good alternative though.. anythoughts? Oh she said
I could eat 1 slice of whole wheat bread a day or 1/2 a cup of pasta or 1/2
a baked potato. I just kept thinking JC

Bread is not low carb
Pasta is not low carb
Potatos are not low carb

Ok the swelling IS going down a bit.. my hands dont look as bad and my feet
look less puffy I think.

The other thing was that I have low blood presure (116/60) so I have to
watch for dizziness with the water pills. Also my grandmother said I need
to get mor potassium in but the dr did not mention it... I know I know
Bananas are not low carb

i read it here that some pple take a small baked potato just before they
go to bed. if it fits into your daily carb count, why not?

what have you been doing the day before you got swollen??? flying?

The day before I noticed the swelling I was... ummm a thursday.. It was the
day my period ended 3 weeks ago.. No flying.

hmmmm... interesting. good luck with achieving your goal!

"i read it here that some pple take a small baked potato just before

What do they do with it? Tell us more. Is it kinky?

Sounds like you need a different doctor more than you need a different diet.
Jumping to such a conclusion without asking you exactly what you eat on
Atkins is not indicative of a thorough, reasoned approach.
