In the 2002 edition of DANDR, most of the induction foods are listed on pages 124 and 125, if you flip to page 126, it gives the list of "other" veggies.

Hope this helps.

I have the revolution book. If the list says "other" veggies.. what does that mean? What does "other" mean.. and what is on the opposing list?

There are two lists of the induction-allowed veggies
The first is headed up

Salad Vegetables
You can have two to three cups per day:

The second list is headed up

Other Vegetables
You can have one cup per day if salad does not exceed two cups-these vegetables are slightly higher in carbohydrate content than the salad vegetables:

These are in chapter 11 of DANDR. As Lyssie said, the first list is on one page (#125) and the second list is over the page (#126), so you need to look at both lists to see what you are allowed.
Your page numbers/layout might be different depending on when/where the book was printed but it should have the same info.

My fitday version counts an egg as 1g (it rounds up anything over .5 which is probably the reason). I count eggs as 1g.

I have the biggest sweet tooth and I have been craving sweets especially cheesecake. And to make it worse I work at the cheesecake factory. Where did you get your 6 carb cheesecake?

[Georgiana]

Cheesecake Factory has the 6 carb cheesecake. I remember seeing it in the menu when I was in Baltimore.

However, being low carb does not automatically make it Atkins 'legal', especially not during induction. I don't know the list of ingredients and I doubt you can find it. It is also typically served with some strawberries on it, which, at least for me, are too tempting to be left on the plate.

There are several induction-friendly cheesecake recipes on the board. You can check those out or look on Linda's website:

Oh, I replied to another post of yours... you are craving sweets because you don't eat enough fat. After you eat more fat you'll get rid of them.

How much fat do I have to eat for each meal?

[Lyssie]

I think the 6g of carbs in her cheesecakes came mostly from the Pumpkin that would be in them... a plain cheesecake does not have that many.
