Hello Oran and welcome! You've come to the right place... yes you will certainly get lots of information, tips, support and inspiration here at ADBB. Having said that, I do urge you to get hold of a copy of DANDR 2002 edition, which is the one the board goes by. There's nothing like a thorough understanding of how and why this way of eating works to help you reach goal smoothly. The induction phase is a very important part of the program as it allows your body to convert to a fat burning metabolism... rather than carb burning. In induction you should find that your appetite decreases a lot too, which is a wonderful bonus. Here's to your very successful losing!

Glad to see another new face here, Orann. Am always delighted to see the transformation that people undergo during the weightloss journey from newbie to seasoned Atkineer.  You might do well to check a local thrift store or paperback trading outlet. I got 2 copies of DANDR for 50 cents each at Goodwill, and left several other Atkins' books on the shelves.

Welcome to the board! Please, look all around to help you with any information you require. I would urge you to go ahead and get "the book" so you have ALL of the information at your fingertips!

I found the books on Amazon - but does anyone know if there are any real differences between the book published in 2002 and the revised version of 2003 ? I noticed that the forum uses the 2002 version and I am curious ... plan to order today and get it here asap ! Thanks Orann |

Hi Orann! Welcome. So happy you've found us and committed to starting your new way of life. I can tell you from experience, this has been the best thing thats ever happened to me, the WOE and the ADBB with all the supportive, motivational and knowledge to help me make choices that have changed my life for the good. My advice is to get involved in the challenges, forums, and make positive changes that will get you to goal. It is definitely worth it. You are worth it!! Best wishes!!!
