Any good ideas using the Atkins Chocolate Shake mix for induction?

I will stay on my diet. I will get healthy and lose weight. There is nothing I could eat or drink that tastes as good as how I feel at this moment on this WOE ~ nothing!

Looking at Atkins site they give the nutrition for one serving of Chocolate shake mix as
Total Fat 4 g
Saturated Fat .5 g
Cholesterol 5 mg
Sodium 80 mg
Potassium 440 g
Total Carbohydrate 10 g inc
Dietary Fiber 5 g
Sugars 2
Protein 15 g
To me even if you deduct the 2 g of sugar alcohols (I would count them btw) you would be using 3 of your up to 20 grams with one serving - seems a bit 'spendy' to me.
Also they contain a fair amount of protein and little fat so would throw out your ratios if you were not careful. You would have to add fat to balance this.
Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies? Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!
Darn, I just bought 3 cans of the stuff on ebay! :smackhead
