What do you consider "normal"? It's hard to give advice until we know what you're thinking. Most of us consider the way we eat right now to be our "normal" way of eating.

Have you read the book? Have you at least read the food lists for Pre-Maintenance and Maintenance? If you were to follow the diet... as written... by the time you're in Maintenance on Atkins you'll be eating foods you're not eating in the beginning. Things like fruit, whole grains, beans and starchy vegetables. That IS part of Atkins. If your "normal" is something different then most of us would say, "Go back to how you ate and you'll go back to what you weighed".
