Anyone on Atkin's diet?

If you are..got a couple of questions:

I've been on it for a little over 3 weeks now. I've been very faithful..no chocolate (miss my m&m's so much!), sugar, etc.

Now, what's so special about the first 2 weeks. I keep reading about this..but it's never made real clear why this is so crucial.
And, it's during the first 2 weeks you are supposed to keep your carb intake below 24 grams a day? Then after that, you can raise it to 30 grams a day?

Just trying to make sure I got the "steps" down right.
Oh, I've lost of whopping 6 pounds so far. Yes, I do work out too.
So, is this about normal for this diet..lose about 2 pounds a week?
Another reason I'm asking is that I remember someone on here saying they had lost like 50 pounds in..I THINK they said, one month!
