Smile Just getting started...

I've officially started Induction today and have lots of questions. I went to the bookstore and got a copy of Atkins for Life. They didn't have any of the others in stock and I needed something to start reading. Good choice???

Also, I know I should be taking a multi-vitamin, but with no iron. I looked at a couple of kinds in Wal-Mart and didn't see any that don't offer iron. Any suggestions on brands?

Is it OK to go under 20g of carbs during Induction? After lunch and according to what I've entered in FitDay, I will only have 7g. That would leave 13g for supper and I just don't see it being realistic and fitting in with what I should be doing. Are there any links or anything where I can find a sample of a daily menu on Induction? Atkins for Life offers menus beginning with 45g of carbs...don't think that particular book is really geared to Induction.

Oh, one more thing (yeah, right)...I've read all I can find on the site here, but I'm still don't feel like I understand ketosis. Can someone spell it out for me like I'm two years old?

Thanks! I'd love any other advice anyone can offer!

Darlene
