Welcome to the board, Sheila!

Remember that Atkins 1972 that you have is quite a bit different to his 2002 version (DANDR) which histhread is about.

In DANDR induction is for 2 weeks (not the one week in '72 DADR)

Also in DANDR he then lists steps of the carbohydrate rung with the order in which to add different foods in 5 net carb amounts instead of just adding 5 carbs of any food you have been missing after week 1 as suggested in DADR.

Also in DADR Dr Atkins expected you to count total carbs, not carbs minus fibre as he did in his later books.

If you want to stay with the book you have we have an ongoing special thread where "veteran Atkineers" post about their menus etc in our buddies forum.
