Angry Chick peas... the root of all evil

So I made the decision to go low carb... just started today, joined Atkins and this forum for support and information...
I go to the salad bar for lunch and get:
lettuce, shredded carrots, a few black olives, a hard boiled egg and top it off with some ranch dressing.
I knew the dressing would be horrendous (nutritionally), but was shocked at the amount of carbs in the chick peas! It brough my luch carb count from 8g to 28g! (I tally up my nutritional values on another site).
I thnk I had like 1/2 cup or something.
I later realized that chick peas are not to be eaten during induction.

Just wanted to vent.

But I do have questions:
1. Can I eat carrotes during induction?
2. I had about 2 tbs of random ranch dressing that was at the salad bar, how bad do you think that is?
3. I feel full from lunch and bought myself some baby carrots and allouette cheese spread as a snack... I'm beginning to think this was not a good idea... (yes no?)
and 4. I got mozzarella sting cheese. Can I have that?

Does and Atkins for Dummies book exist?!
lol
