Induction 8 days in...

I just came up from a meeting and my boss served me with a big jug of coffee without sugar but with milk. It was an offer I couldn't refuse. Should I be worried???

No, don't worry, you might get some cravings more than normal, and maybe feel wired, but it shouldn't effect your weight loss.

Dr Atkins did hope we would give up caffeine and go for decaf versions, as caffeine can spoil some people's progress.

Most 'pushers' of coffee will accept a 'no - just a glass of water for me, please' I have found, so it ought to be possible to avoid in future.

Unless you had lots of milk with it you should be fine - but next time if you do decide to accept the coffee, either take it black or ask for cream as milk is higher in carbs and not 'legal' till OWL rung/level 2.
