Default Re: New to Atkins and shell-shocked- PLS HELP!

Do you have a copy of Dr Atkins New Diet Revolution (DANDR)?
If so take a look at the list of allowed foods for induction which details all the veggies and other foods you can eat. This will take all the pressure off of deciding if any particular food is allowed or not in this phase of atkins (which lasts for 2 weeks)

Then choose from the list the foods that you fancy and, voilá you have the beginnings of a plan

You can eat any of the allowed foods (within the limits detailed there) at any meal or snack. There is no such thing as a 'breakfast food' on Atkins.

If you don't have a copy of DANDR yet then there is a thread in the Atkins Diet FAQ forum with the list of the foods allowed on induction that you can print out to have handy for reference when buying/choosing foods.
