Greetings from Alaska

[christopherjhalk]

Brand new to Atkins and to this website as of January 4th. This coming Monday the 11th of January will be my first week completed on the Atkins program. I have the books, (not really sure I understand it all) and I am looking forward very much to losing all this weight.

Any thoughts or suggestions would be great.

Thanks

Welcome!

I have the books

Which books do you have?

Do you have the 2002 edition of Dr. Atkins' New Diet Revolution?

Re: Greetings from Alaska

Welcome
My major thought would be to follow the programme exactly as written. It works that way

If you have questions, check this out:
http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...tion-faqs.html TONS of great information here.

BTW: We follow DANDR (Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution, 2002 ED) on this site. Some of the older/newer books have different rules/information in them. DANDR was the last book published while Dr. Atkins was still alive.

Re: Greetings from Alaska

Welcome --

My best advise: Plan your meals for a few days so you have everything in your home and you won’t be tempted to eat something not allowed. Eat only foods listed on the acceptable food list http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...induction.html (What foods can be eaten on Induction?) make sure you eat a variety of foods and vegetables and count all “net carbs”. Check Linda's recipe site it will help keep you from eating the same thing over and over -- http://www.genaw.com/lowcarb/menus.html.

Drink a minimum 64 ounces of pure water (nothing added), exercise and take a non-iron multivitamin daily.

If you need anything we’re here to help you!!

Good luck to you
