    Hello Chezy and welcome to ADBB! This is a great place to come to if you're looking for support to motivate and boost your will power. I'm sure that if you come to the board often, you'll become a big loser and find the determination to stick to this way of eating.

    Yes, induction is two weeks... after that you can continue in extended induction or move to OWL (ongoing weight loss).

    I'd advise you to check out the induction forum where there are lots of stickies giving information about the first phase of Atkins. Here are two useful links:
    The Rules of Induction can be found here:
    http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard....read.php?t=6782

    The Induction Acceptable Foods List can be found here:
    http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard....read.php?t=6781

    Note that 20g carbs is the induction limit.

    A clean induction is important because you'll be able to determine your level of metabolic resisitence from the amount you lose during the first two weeks.

    Best wishes on your Atkins journey to better health and a trim figure. Do keep us posted as to how you get along!
    Before and after:
