Ruby,

The goal of getting to maintenance by August is really possible. Keep it up. Your stats of 5 lbs in 4 days crys out at some of us. This would indicate much of it might be water. If your consumption is less than 8 cups of water (hopefully more like 9), your body will have a harder time expelling toxins, etc. The induction is fairly hard on your organs. Also, hop onto any fairly complete multivitamin like Centrum. The first 14 days of any diet depletes calcium, including Atkins. If you have been drinking lots of water, then you have a wonderfully responsive metabolism and will have a good trip to your goal.
