Trying to find my way with Atkins

Thank you for your time and patience! Your clarification of the carb issue was excellent, I'm so glad you understood my dilemma. I was worried that my metabolism would slow down if I was eating too far below the 20 net carbs. We were told at ANI that induction was at 20 net carbs, not 17, 18 or 19. I'm also glad that my weight loss won't be slowed down by the small amount of veg on induction (about 7 net carbs). They really put the fear of God into us at ANI!! If you aren't losing weight, the lead moderator barks "if your not eating 12-15 net carbs of veg, your not doing induction and you won't lose weight". I can't tell you how glad I am that you are such a nice bunch of people. I have been really traumatised by the Atkins Nutritional Inc discussion group.
Where do I post further questions like 'how long do I stay on induction'. I would like to keep in touch with familiar moderators for support, is this possible?

Re the veggies... don't get me wrong... I'm not saying they're not important. You certainly need those vits and mins... just that, if you eat the three cups from the legal lists and keep your carbs under 20g total in induction, the ratios will take care of themselves.

If you have questions relating to induction, then you can post them in the Atkins Diet 14 day Induction forum http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...splay.php?f=73

Then when you move to OWL, you can post questions in the OWL forum, and so on through the phases.

Take a look at the Forum page and you'll see there are loads of different forums for many subjects. Each forum has its own mods... they'll be more than happy to help you, as will other members.
