hi -- as Georgiana said you need to get more fats in your diet daily and eat veggies other that just a salad...try to get 1 cup of veggies off the "other" veggie list (broccoli, etc). Check the induction link again, make sure you know the foods are you allowed to eat for the first phase -- check the recipe sites and make a couple meals ahead - most freeze well and can be eaten hot or cold once they are thawed out. If you need some help just let us know!

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.
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.
