You're taking your multi vitamin and drinking your water. Sounds like you're off to a very good start. Dropping a lot on induction is normal depending on how much weight you do have. You are correct about water weight being the first part you loose. Just keep up with your water.
After two weeks you'll begin the second phase and it will slow down a little, but you'll still loose. Just not as fast. Personally, I wouldn't worry about it for now. Just keep track of things. If fast weight loss is still a concern after a month of being on the diet, then you may need to start adding a few more veggies to slow things down. Right now though, you sound fine.
Have you read the Atkins book? If not, I really suggest you read it. The library even has it on tape/CD over here for those who don't read a lot.
If I recall, I believe the book stated two salads a day and one serving of a veggie. Are you getting those in your diet?
Congrats on your weight loss.
