    Welcome to the ADBB!

    You should post your menu in the menu forum for help with that, also the induction forum you will find lots of helpful folks over there!

      welcome to the board.

      Have you gotten hold of a copy of Dr Atkins New Diet Revolution 2002 edition? that will help you understand the workings of the program and why it is important to be eatting other veggies from the list too for those vital nutrients they contain.

      great job on the water how is your mandatory exercise program going? The new 6 week exercise challenge known as 6WEC here is signing up now for a SUnday start.

      Check out the induction forum for some great advice on how to be eating your induction foods to maximize your losing.

      You didn't say how much you were planning to lose or if you had a cleran 14 day induction but 0 pounds for the 14 days puts you in the metabolically resistant catagory and chapter 20 is for you.

      Happy low carbing

        Welcome, glad to have you join us. I agree with the words of advice from 2BIG. Hang in there, check your menu, exercise, drink water and most important READ THE BOOK. I've had times of no-loss of inches and pounds, but if you hang in there and do it like the doctor prescribed, then it will happen. I never would have believed I could lose as much as I have, but now I am a true believer!!
