I went on the Atkins diet years ago with good results but I remember starting out getting shaky and dizzy and somebody here had a solution that worked...

any suggestions.. I'm on day 3 of stage 1

I'm starting on a Paleo diet. I tried the fricken raw vegan, couldn't do it. Tried vegetarian, I like meat too much. Paleo is almost Atkins. Apparently you eat what you can gather and what you can kill (greens, fruits, vegetables and meat) No grains, no processed foods. I ordered a book, the Paleo Blueprint, so I have a better direction on where to go. I lost all the horsepower I gained a year and a half ago...

I know that didn't really help you any, but I'm going through the shaky shakes too. I think it's sugar withdrawl. I eat an apple or a banana and it goes away.

Tried the low carb diet...didn't like it. I am currently on the Abs diet and lost 30 pounds in a few months with little exercise. I would highly recommend it!

Ok the Abs diet...

I did eat sunflower seeds and the shakes went away...

+1 on the paleo diet. I went from crap diet to paleo diet, then started reducing carbs until I was under 20g a day. I've had great resuts combined with lifting weights. I'm down 30lbs and I haven't done ANY cardio. You're probably feeling ketotic hypoglycemia. Like mentioned above, eat a banana, an apple, some grapes, etc.
