I responded to your question about the cream on your other post.
As for the shakes - as some other posters said on that thread, the shakes are often found to be a problem by other members and most people feel they are better left till later on your Atkins journey.
You quoted the carb content but didnt mention the other nutrition info.
I did a quick check on the Atkins company website and found nutrition info which sowed that they contain quite a lot of protein (about twice as much as fat) so I feel that if you 'ate' just these for a meal with no vegetables or extra fat that you would be overdoing the protein.
Remember, Atkins is NOT a high protein way of eating, but a high fat one - the usually mentioned ratios for induction are 65% fat/30% protein/5% carbs.

make sure you are not consuming excess quantities of protein. When eaten to excess, protein converts to glucose.
