    This is all the food that you've eaten for the whole day?
    If so, then you're not hitting the Atkins mark. It's not so much 'wrong' as it is very skimpy and incomplete.

    Get yourself a copy of Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution, version 2002 (DANDR for short) and give it a good read. Everything is laid out quite clearly in the Rules of Induction and the Acceptable Food lists.
    Here's a wallet sized card you can print out to take with you shopping as well

    but do make sure to get and read the book so you know the 'why' behind the diet.

      As Moochie said, if it was your whole day's food then you are way off for induction, but if it was your food for just one meal then it probably was fine, as it is good to have some veggies at each meal to spread out your carbs for the day.
      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!

        yep read the book and understand Atkins is a big eatting your veggies program too. 3 whole cups a day in induction and more to come in OWL.

        also the cream is a specail catagory food and it may or may not effect your weight loss so be careful to monitor it carefully.
