I am new to this site but have been following the post for a while now. I have been doing atkins for about 5 weeks now but now i have started gaining weight.
Let me start by saying yes i weigh everyday horrible habbit! I haven't made any really changes in my food the only thing that has changed as i have since started 3 medications.

Typical Day:

Breakfast:
Either 3 eggs with chesse & 2 slices of bacon
or if i am in a hurry with the kids i have a atkins shake.

Snack:
Sugar Free Jello or somedays Turkey Slices or pork rins

Lunch:
Normally its either chicken or a turkey burger(no bun) with cheese over a bed of lettuce or spinach with ranch or oil and vingear.

Dinner:
Pretty much the same as lunch some type of meat and a salad.

I normally drink at least 80 ozs of water each day i do drink diet soda so i dont know if that could be it or not.

So i need help!!! Please let me know what ya'll believe i could be stuck or if i am just crazy and need to just weigh once a week

What medications are you taking? And is weight gain listed in their side effects?

A few years ago I was losing weight steadily till I hit the 35 lb loss. Then I hit a plateau. I struggled a lot to get past it. Didn't think that it was the medication I was put on for blood pressure. Earlier I had gained weight on antidepressants, and I gained a lot of weight before that on steroids for asthma. More recently, I started gaining weight for meds I was taking for controling blood sugar.

I'm off everything now, managing it all with diet and exercise, adequate sleep and drinking only water.

Hey Thanks so much for the help...

The medications i just started 2 weeks ago are:
20mg of Prozac
Xanax 2mg twice a day
37.5mg phentermine

Which the phentermine should help me lose but i just keep going up everymorning :/

Thanks for all the advice

just my 2 cents I would ditch the diet soda & yeah it could be your meds for the weight gain.
