Hello M198! Welcome to Atkins and to this site.

Based on your style of writing (sounds like texting/IMing to me) I'm guessing you're young. That doesn't matter here, but it matters to your body. You need those vegetables... so please, make sure you get them in the house. Have you read the book? Have you read the Induction rules and the food list that goes with it? Those two things are extremely important for success on this plan. Without them, it's kinda like putting a puzzle together without the picture to go by... you may get pieces to fit, but it will take you forever and you're going to be very frustrated.

How much weight do you figure you need to lose? A little or a lot? Have you ever done low carb (or any other diet)? Are you M or F? Age? Are you on medications or have anything like diabetes or PCOS? These things all influence weight loss... but if I'm right and you're young, YOU have the greatest advantage of all... a young metabolism.

So good luck, stick around and we'll help you figure this out.

except dr A is quite adamantly against aspartame (not sure why) - so try to find soda without it (it's number is 951 - at least in australia)

i can't find any, mind you...which is a shame, cause i want to try some with cream!
