I have been trying to do Atkins induction for the past three weeks. The first week I felt awful, and was dizzy and shaky, but I stayed with it. The second week I felt great! The third week my gastroparesis has started to really act up. I haven't been able to sleep, and I finally ate carbs yesterday late at night in a desperate attempt to put something gentle in my stomach and put myself to sleep (carbs make me sleepy).

I have purchased Dr. Bernstein's books, and Amazon has already shipped them. I have read that Dr. Bernstein addresses gastroparesis in his books.

I just need some help for the next few days. I feel desperate. My bgs have been great-- fastings under 95 and post-prandials always below 100. I have only lost 2 pounds, but I am coming to terms with the realization that I am not going to be able to lose weight easily, if at all.

What can I eat right now that is low carb but will also give my stomach a break, other than sf gelatin?

Thank you!
