Monika-- thanks!

I intend to get a full blood screen once I've been on atkins for 6 weeks, the recommended time.

Also, it's three cups of veggies, not two! I've seen a lot of people who treat that as a minimum, as long as carbs stay below 20.

I know that the company sells vitamins, but didn't Dr. A insist that you can get what you need from fresh food? I'm going to input the recommended one week induction menu into fitday to see how the nutrition anlysis works out.

As for alcohol-- I don't drink much anyways, so I'm ok waiting until a later stage for my low-carb bourbon.

Thanks so much!!!
