There is a reason why induction is suggested for 2 weeks. Yes, Atkins says it is safe to stay on induction but for many people, 20 grms of carbs isn't enough and instead of losing weight the metabolism slows down. Follow the time table and move on. You will probably find your weight loss gets a kick start and your headaches go away. Start by adding veggies. A salad at lunch and dinner plus a veggie with dinner. Your body needs the fiber and vitamins. Bacon-ets are high in sodium. Sodium causes water retention. Just eliminating the bacon-ets may effect your progress as well. Congrats on the 6 pounds you have lost already!
