Hi Everyone!

I am a 41 year old active healthy bloke and I have had amazing success doing Atkins before (5 years ago I lost about 3.5 stones).

I am currently on day 21 and to date I have lost only 1.3 Kg!

I cannot understand it at all!

My daily intake consists of:-

1 or 2 Tins of Tuna (in sunflower oil) with mayonnaise for breakfast.

A couple of beef sausages or rashers for lunch (not a big eater during the day).

Grilled Chicken (KFC style) with loads of salad (Iceberg lettuce, peppers, onions, grated carrot) and some mature cheddar grated over it all.

I got so, so sick of fry ups that this is what I have been eating every day.

I have 3 or 4 cups of coffee a day with full cream milk and Splenda and I drink about 4 litres of Pepsi Max (I'm an addict and cannot resist!).

I also am a keep fit noob and I run (not jog) 4 miles on alternate days, I cycle and also go to the gym for weight training (have NOT done enough for muscle growth yet though!).

Why am I not losing weight?

Is there something that I am doing that is scuppering the diet?

The only thing that has changed since I did the Atkins 5 years ago is the amount of excercise I do now, 5 years ago it was minimal.

Thanks in advance!
