    I need help

    Hi everyone. I need your help. I do not think I am following the plan right. Today is my first day of induction and I ate for breakfast: 2 strips of bacon and 2 boiled eggs. And for Lunch I had a large Salad and a polish saug. The reason I say im doing it wrong is because my aunt has been doing Atkins for five years now and she says I ate to much greasy food. Can some1 give me the run down on Induction (I've read the book but it’s clear I still don’t know ) Maybe even a sample menu. Thank You

    Looks fine to me. Fat is good on Atkins.

      Fat is a part of the diet. Perhaps your aunt never read the book. If someone ever wants to give you advice on this WOE ask them first if they have 'read the book'. If the answer is 'no' then dont take their advice.

          well, the sausage is not a great choice b/c processed meats tend to be less healthy for us than plain poultry/beef/pork, etc. (not that I don't have the occasional sausage or hot dog, but I try to go easy).

          and when you say "large" salad, how many cups do you think it was? did it have anything on it, or just greens? dressing?

          otherwise, I think you are fine. there is a sample menu in the book and I also saw one here on the board...somewhere!

          good luck to you!

            Yes, All the polish sausage I've seen has corn syrup in it. Otherwise you're doing fine so far.

              Well fellow Buffalonian - welcome. I just finished induction and read the book before beginning. Make sure you get the Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution and read it. There are sample menus toward the back and there's LOTS of necessary information in the first few chapters if you want to do this right.
