Also, once you're done with Induction (or even on Induction, I guess), you can get a very inexpensive source of protein from soy. Tofu is much, much cheaper than meat and relatively low in carbs (2 g per 4 oz. serving). Unsweetened soy butter has only 1 carb per 2 tbs. serving, is cheaper than unsweetened peanut butter, and goes great on a high-fiber, low carb cracker. Even the soy burgers that are sold in some health food stores are relatively cheap (certainly cheaper than meat) and fairly low in carbs.

But just a note of warning: Don't eat too much soy and certainly don't take soy supplements. Not clear yet what the phytoestrogen in soy does (or doesn't do). IMHO, moderation is called for.

Good luck with this! I've found low carbing much less expensive than the wretched sweet snacks I used to crave.
