I keep reading everywhere about having the netcarbs for our vegetables to come in the form of three cups of veggies... does it really matter if i am eating over or under the "three cups" as long as i am staying within the realm of 12-15net carbs?

Re: 3cups or 12-15net
induction is about more then just net carbs. it is about changing your attitude toward foods and what you can and can't have. ADBB uses DANDR 2002 as its official rules for doing Atkins so the 3 cups and staying under 20 net carbs are the correct rules for here.
after Dr Atkins died the company that bought his company changed the rules and made it 12-15 net grams of carbs.
Dr Atkins says in DANDR he picked 15-20 net grams of carbs because 95% of the folk who try induction for 14 days will lose weight so thewre isn'tr any magic in where you eat your carbs unless you are one of those 5% who are metabolically resistantby the book atkinseer

Re: 3cups or 12-15net
Remember the 2nd part of Rule #3 is that you get MOST of your net carbs from Induction vegetables.
It's quite possible to get 12-15 net carbs and still stick to the "cups" rule.
