Do you have the book? It is a really good resource. It tells you what you can eat.
Here are some threads in our FAQ that will help you.
http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...induction.html (What are the Rules of Induction?)
http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...induction.html (What foods can be eaten on Induction?)
http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...lent-tips.html (A "MUST READ" for Newbies... 40 excellent tips!)
So as you can see after reading these. You can have some onion and there is not limitation on eggs.

Hi Niki, I don't envy you, when I started I lived in Japan, where rice ruled. But I did it and lost and so can you. Have any questions, please just ask

Smile Re: My Last Resort..

Thanks friends for your support . I was going quite smoothly , when yesterday was so desperate that I took some cashew nuts ...anyway still not giving up and trying to get back to induction, today .
I can see that I do feel lighter , but my weighing scale just shows 1 kg down . I was expecting to lose atleast 3 kgs (a bit too greedy!)
morning bfast : I take one egg and sausage with some cucumber and tomato slices
lunch is mostly veg + fish/chicken
dinner is eggs+some vegetables. I am scred , I may end up with cholestrol with such high amount of eggs consumed

If your liver is functioning properly, your egg consumption is no problem.

Niki, here is something to read about eggs:
http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...olesterol.html (Eggs do NOT increase the level of blood cholesterol)

You don't write the quantities, but are you sure there is enough fat in your menu? You should aim for 65% fat, 5% carbs and 30% protein during induction.

I believe that the best way to overcome temptation is not with willpower, which is so often in short supply, but with our brain power, a potentially unlimited resource.

Imagine that you're doing great, losing weight, feeling better than ever, thrilled with yourself, hearing compliments from friends and acquaintances---and then it happens! Despite all your good intentions, you're mightily tempted by a food you're not supposed to have. What to do? I'll tell you this: You'd better have a strategy ready!"
