I am working on Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution. I have to say it makes a lot of sense. I was wondering if it's necessary to go through the induction period if I am just trying to shed less than 5 lbs? Or can I jump into pre-maintance? Basically I just want to be on an LC with basic guidelines and know when to say when when it comes to carbs. Thanks ahead of time for any input. And continue sucess to those following this woe.
