Radar, about those first day jitters.
I have to say I know a few people that have been through Atkins and I have never heard of something like that. I would say if you begin to feel faint or bad in any way, you should consider laying off the diet until you talk to a doctor. Better safe than sorry.
And I've learned that the induction part of the diet can be trimmed down to as little as three days as opposed to two weeks, if you are confident that you are in ketosis. Since this is the first time you are trying Atkins, I would recommend buying Ketosticks at your pharmacy so you can see what your metabolism is up to. The book describes how they work.
