Re: new
Welcome to the Atkins Board.
I agree with Liv -- follow the plan the way it's written and you'll have much success...hopefully you'll get the 2002 Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution book and read it so you understand why the plan works and the science to back up those claims.
Make sure you drink a minimum of 64 ounces of pure water (nothing added), exercise starting today and taking a multi-vitamin.
Eat only the foods in the amounts listed on the acceptable food list http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.com/forums/atkins-low-carb-dieting-faqs/6781-what-foods-can-eaten-induction.html and find wonderful recipes here: just make sure you use Induction Recipes to begin with. Vary your meals so you don't get tired of eating the same thing over and over -- we have too many choices for that to happen.
