Thornbird,
This is my second round on atkins and I am also finding that it does not go as quickly the second time. My bro's girlfriend says the same thing and she has no thyroid problems. She is on her second time and is not losing as fast, if at all.
I am hypo thyroid and I just got my yearly thyroid test back. I am in normal range so I should not be having a problem but I am having a heck of a time losing weight this time around. I work out everyday and stick pretty close to the diet, I don't do as much fat as I did the first time but I thinking that would not matter.
I am beginning to wonder if this diet is only good the first time around. I lost 70 pds and kept it off for 7 years before my thyroid gave out and I gained it all back in about 2 years.
