    Welcome to the board!

    You should have vegetables during all the phases of Atkins. Without vegetables, it's not Atkins.

    I would recommend reading the 2002 edition of Dr. Atkins' New Diet Revolution. That's the book we go by at ADBB.

    In the meantime, these links should help:

        Hi Michelle

        Welcome to our international ADB family

        Are you in the UK? ( I notice you mentioned having lost 3 stone in the past so am guessing you are my side of the pond )

        If you have not yet got a copy of DANDR 2002 (2003 in UK) you might be able to get hold of one for under 50p at a charity shop if you have any local to you. I often see copies on their shelves whenn I go looking for smaller clothes and donating my larger ones.
        Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?

              There is a good thread called 'weight of vegetables per cup' in the FAQ forum that I use a lot for this.
              http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...p-measure.html

              And another useful spreadsheet here too which annotates foods for which phase of Atkins they are 'legal'
