Re: atkins shakes

Some people drink the shakes with no issues while others stall (they stall me). On induction I would stick to only the foods on the induction list which doesn't include shakes.

Re: atkins shakes

I'd try your best to avoid the bars and the shakes... at least until you are near maintenance. They really do stall many people and are full of ingredients that are not induction friendly.
Atkins nutritionals want to make money... and they're more interested in that than in people's weight loss.
Dr Atkins only really advocated the bars for emergencies.

Try and take a cooler bag with you, with lots of natural foods... cheese, salad veggies, eggs, cold cuts...
You can do it!
