What are the food allergies? It is quite possible that you are still giving Connor foods that he is violently reacting to. Most doctors (even allergists) are illiterate about food-related problems, and how to resolve them. ALL my problems are food related, and not a single doctor picked up on them (I figured it out on my own). At one point, when I was in the hospital with: allergist, 2 GI's, 3 tropical disease experts, and endocrinologist (and I think my doctor consulted even more docs since he was stumped) and NONE of them even thought about food allergy as the common thread to my severe problems. I'm not saying the food is the cause, but if there are known food allergies, they need to be TOTALLY eliminated to determine how much of an impact they are having. Getting rid of food allergens is tough, as they can easily show up in about everything, including medicine. >Is he being treated with steroids.

Guest guest Report post Posted October 9, 1999 Welcome Patti! This really is a way of life, not a diet... and I'm finding that it's no trouble to stick to. I don't crave sweets anymore at all.

And steadly went up ward from there till I topped out at 310. I have been on this diet since May 1 and in the 5 months I have lost 50 lbs 25 were gone thru induction. --- Lesli lesli@...> wrote: Hello everyone My name is Lesli and IM from Texas. I just started the Atkins diet on Friday. I decided not to do like allot of people do when starting a new diet, wait till Monday. If this diet is going to make me feel better then let's get started. I am 26 years old. I have an 8 month old son who just started crawling. I had a pretty rough pregnancy. I was sick the whole time and then was put on bed rest. Basically I had put myself on it from the beginning but then my doctor did it officially. I am 5'2 " and weigh 301lbs. I've always been overweight but each year it has gotten worse and worse. This diet should be fairly easy. I do not crave sweets. Vie always loved cheese. I do however like pasta's. Anyway, That's my story. I look forward to losing weight with you.
