I used to be on Atkins, and I didn't care, until my hair started

I wondered what else it was doing to me that I couldn't see.

Now that I'm on the "outside loop," I see how insane the Atkins diet
is. I
roll my eyes when I see a new low-carb product advertised on TV...
it's just
not healthy.

You know Jen, hair loss can be associated with any significant weight
loss.
Low fat, low cal, low carb etc. Type of diet doesn't matter.

There are also other reasons hair loss occurs. But since you're the
one who has to live your life all I can do is wish you good luck. I
remember
the tricks my subconscious tried to play to get me to stop low
carbing and
feed it sugar over the years. That Id is a tricky devil. :-)

Take care,
