      Welcome Andrea! Glad you decided to give Atkins a try and came here for support!

      Best thing you can do is get a copy of Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution 2002 edition and read it front to back. Knowing WHY it works is just as important to success as knowing HOW it works.

      Also, head over to the Induction forum and read the stickie posts there as they are a wealth of information on the first 2 weeks of your journey.

      I would say those rank as the #1 things you should do to start.

      Best of luck and if you need anything just give a shout!
