Re: some Q's?

Congrats on starting Atkins! Be sure and get the book, it will help tremendously.

You can stay on induction indefinitely. It's at least 14 days but if you want to continue it certainly doesn't hurt you. And if you move up the rungs you can stand on any one rung for as long as you like. Some people move up from induction to the veggie rung and stay there indefinitely. It gives you a little more choices being able to have the extra veggies. Just do what you're comfortable with.

And there's no way to tell you how long it would take to lose 50 pounds. It depends on your own metabolism, how much you exercise, etc. Everybody is different. But if you're faithful to the plan you'll be happy how quick it will come off.

There's lots of good food you can eat... seafood, steak, a huge variety of veggies. Even on induction there are a lot of good choices.

Good luck!

Not the ones at the fast food places. But you can make your own at home. Dip the chicken in egg and then coat in parmesan. It's very good.

It's perfect. Just watch your cheese amounts... don't go over 3 -4 ounces a day.

And drink water, water, water. That and exercise are mandatory parts of the program.

Re: some Q's?

Welcome, and I second the comments by Heidi (girl, you are *always* on the mark!!) Read the book, reread the book, follow it to the letter. No one can predict how fast you will lose the weight, but we can definitely say if you do it RIGHT, you will see results!

Best wishes!
