Atkins newbie--help

Hello everyone,

Please could someone tell me if this is normal...

I started low-carbing two weeks ago, doing the 2-week Atkins Induction. I lost about 9 pounds in the first 11 days, then I started gaining weight on day twelve. Today is day 16 (off induction since day 15) , and I have gained 2lbs in 4 days. I'm in ketosis, or so the strips say.

An intervening factor is that I got my period (a rare event) on day 12 which is when the gain started. I know that your period makes you gain weight, but I thought that that happened before your period and not during? I'm just concerned because I don't want to continue on this diet if it is going to make me gain 1/2 lb a day!

Does anybody know what is going on?

Thanks in advance. Lisa
