Hi and welcome -- You were under the false understanding that we only eat meat....that is SO sad!!! We eat meat, cheese and veggies.....if you read the book you will understand what you are doing. You can get a copy, if not locally, on www.amazon.com or www.half.com - mine cost less than $5.00 with shipping. Stay away from the shakes and bars (they are NOT legal on induction) - eat a variety of foods, get your fats, carbs and protein in daily, drink plenty of pure water (nothing added), take your supplements and exercise...it's really that easy. Read the 2002 DANDR book so you know what you’re doing.

What are your statistics? How much do you have to loose, age, medications, etc.???
Post a few days of your menus so we can help get you going the right way.

Post often here, ask questions, read what the moderators and older members are talking about, they are the ones who know what is do -- some of the newer members think they do but unfortunately sometimes they aren't doing the right things also....

Check the stickies (information posts) at the top of this page http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.com/forums/atkins-diet-14-day-induction/

Drink a minimum of 64 ounces of water each day, including:
Filtered water
Mineral water
Spring water
Tap water

Crystal Lite, sugar free teas, sodas, latte’s, smoothies – don’t count – PURE water is the only thing that counts toward your daily water intake. Now is the time to make changes – stop using these products. If you need a “flavor” in your water float a lemon or lime slice on top of your water

Check the recipe sites also - they are very helpful and will help make your meals so much more enjoyable.
