Hi everybody, I am brand new here, I just started doing atkins as my way of life today. I have a couple questions. First, I'm not sure how much sodium you are supposed to have per day. And also, How many carbs should you have per day? Any answers would help me, thanks!!!

If you have read the Atkins book it will certainly tell you how many carbs a day.

On induction you should aim for 20g of carbs a day.

With regard to sodium, I don't count it personally. I just use low sodium salt when cooking and I don't eat too many salty foods.
