Default Gaining weight on Atkins - Help

I have been on Atkins for two weeks and I have gained 5 pounds. I am following the induction to the letter. I went to Fitday and plugged in a typical menu. The totals were 65% fat, 30% proten and 5% carbs. The total # of carbs that I have is usually 18 or 19. I am drinking about 64-70 ounces of water a day. I am very upset. All I read about it people losing weight. Maybe I am just not meant to lose weight. I weigh 170 pounds, 44 years old, 5 foot 3 inches tall. Sorry I am being poor me. I just thought that this was the answer for me.

Can anyone help?
Thank you
Tami
