I am new here. I have not been on Atkins but about 7 weeks, this time.
I have fallen out of ketosis, a couple of times. I still lose weight, but I seem to lose other benefits, which was why I started Low Carb to begin with.
I had a blood pressure issue. 210/140. Started Atkins. BP went "normal" in less than a week.
I had a weight problem. 6'3" and 405. Stayed in ketosis most of the seven weeks, lost 40. Blood Sugar was good.
I have lymphodema. Went on Atkins, less severe swelling. Fell out of Ketosis. SWELLING RETURNED.
So, I remain in a ketotic state, for that purpose. I hope by the time I reach my goal, 110 pounds from now, I'll have found relief from that ailment.
I learned from my previous attempt at Atkins, that I began to gain weight at about 80 grams of carbs/day. Yet, I seemed to be ketotic into the high 40s. I can "Feel" the difference. If I fall out, I seem more sluggish, and my demeanor is taxed. IOW, I become Grumpy.
Each body is different. As long as you get the results you seek, I say, More Power to Ya'.
