I >normally lose weight quite easily.what is the atkin's diet exactly? i was instructed by someone to eat zero carbs and just vegetables + fish/chicken but i find myself feeling like i have less energy or even hypoglycemic (low blood sugar) ....
i went from 40 mg to 30 mg parnate and 3.75 mg to 1.875 mg abilify but i'm not sure exactly what is causing my lack of energy/motivation..... probably all three huh? ... but which would be primarily responsible
also trying to figure out the miracle cure for rosacea, i don't think diet makes a diff, parnate dosage might??
