We are here for support. Just ask question and share your journey with us.
My best advice for now would be to follow the rules strictly. It works when you work it. Good luck

Welcome to the Atkins Board.

I agree with Liv -- follow the plan the way it's written and you'll have much success...hopefully you'll get the 2002 Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution book and read it so you understand why the plan works and the science to back up those claims.

Make sure you drink a minimum of 64 ounces of pure water (nothing added), exercise starting today and taking a multi-vitamin.

Eat only the foods in the amounts listed on the acceptable food list
(What foods can be eaten on Induction?)http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.com/forums/atkins-low-carb-dieting-faqs/6781-what-foods-can-eaten-induction.html and find wonderful recipes here: just make sure you use Induction Recipes to begin with. Vary your meals so you don't get tired of eating the same thing over and over -- we have too many choices for that to happen.

day 2 towards a happier/healthier you - how cool is that ?! I have never stayed with anything this long [8 months for me] - little blips along the way, but in the end, I'm still loving this WOE and this site helps to keep me motivated. Just keep chatting, hope you are doing well!
