  • How long should I do Induction

    How long should I stay on induction. I would like to eat some Atkins bars, but I don't want to slow down my weight loss. Today is my last day of induction. Also, are protein shakes legal after induction?

    A minimum of two weeks. Then you should read Chapters 12 and 13 in DANDR and decide whether you want to continue with Induction for a little longer or add 5 net carbs of veggies and move to OWL.

    I would like to eat some Atkins bars, but I don't want to slow down my weight loss.
    Then..... don't.

    They are not meant as sweet treats, but as super emergency foods to be used when nothing else is available other than Atkins bars (which just shows how important is having your Atkins emergency kit always ready ).

    Also, are protein shakes legal after induction?
    Depends on the protein. If it's a protein isolate, I would say it's "legal", although I personally would not have it since I prefer to take my protein from foods and because overeating protein works against weight loss on Atkins. If it's protein powder, then whey protein is allowed in OWL Rung 2, soy protein is allowed in OWL Rung 6 and so on.
