avramI took a week off from BFL, using Thanksgiving as an excuse. Foolish, really.
Anyway, I checked with my doctor about doing Atkins. She said my kidneys were fine, so I could go ahead. (A study that followed 1,624 women aged between 42 and 68 over 11 years found that high-protein diets can make existing kidney problems worse, but don’t damage healthy kidneys. Other studies have shown not even that much danger.) I’m just doing the two-week induction phase, to see what happens.
And tomorrow, back to the gym.
