Question Low Carb bread OK/Sugar Free candy

Question! I just found a low carb bread that is 3 carbs per slice. It is made by "Food for Life".. It is $1.50 cheaper then the ATKINS bread.. BUT.. My question is.. Is it ok to eat it on Induction! I know it says not to eat bread, but is it ok to eat LOW CARB bread during induction?
I am not a big Sausage/Bacon person but i've been eating them for breakfast along with eggs in various forms. I would LOVE to make french toast, or even have the toast by itself..

I stocked up on this bread because in my area, if you dont stock up when you see a low-carb item in stock, you wont see it again for MANY weeks! I bought 6 packs

By the way, I tried the Atkins Strawberry shake for the first time yesterday.. Lets just say, it was my first AND my last ! !

Before I forget.. I purchased Sugar Free Reeses, Sugar Free Caramels, Sugar Free Turtles and Sugar Free Creme Savers..
Are these ok:
1) Sugar Free Reeses....total carbs: 23g... dietary fiber..1g
Lactitol 19g..... it states: "Lactitol (a sugar sub) is a slowly metabolized carb that generally causes only a small rise in blood glucose levels" Under dietary exchanges it says "1 carb, 2fat" . How do they come to 1 carb for these? Subtract the Lactitol???

2) Sugar Free Creme Savers.............Total Carbs:13g....Sugar Alcohol...13g.. Do you subtract the Sugar Alcohol to make this item a 0 carb item???

3) Sugar Free Nips Caramels....Total carbs: 9g...Sugar Alcohols: 9g... States: 0 Sugar Carbs, 0 Impact Carbs... Is this ok?

4) Sugar Free Turtles.......Total Carbs: 18 g...Dietary Fiber: <1.....Sugar Alcohol 15g.. Making this 3 carbs?

I fould WalMart has the BEST selection of sugar free "sweets" at a GOOD price.. I know these arent allows on Induction, the packages havent been opened (they're hitting the freezer!). Just want to make sure the "Lactitol" is an OK thing to have..
