Do you keep track of what you eat? www.fitday.com is pretty good, though it's a pain to get used to. You need to know your carb counts, and whether you're getting sufficient calories...
Are baken-ets on the allowed list for induction (I have no idea what they are)...

I'm working from Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution. He says 3 cups of salad veg., loosely packed, or 2 cups of salad plus 2/3 cup of cooked vegetables in the below 10% (does he mean 10g? God knows.) Cooked spinach is in the latter category, but rather than eating the salad veg., none of which I care for, I substituted raw spinach with my dinner, as near as I could judge 2 cups "loosely packed." Although such are cup measures it could have been anything. I eat this with my 6oz of sirloin or slice of roast pork, or 1/4 chicken for dinner.

Yes, cream cheese is included in the Induction diet; I've been eating 2oz a day at 0.5g per ounce. This, with Baken-ets (also a recommendation of Atkins) is my lunch. Baken-Ets are fried pork skins.

My breakfast until the last 6 days was 2 eggs scrambled with a heapedless than table-spoon of feta cheese (1 oz, actually, at <0.5g). Then I switched to one fried egg with 2 slices of Owen's breakfast sausage (Og carb) and today, because I didn't care for it and wanted to get rid of it, I just ate the last 4 oz of sausage and left out the egg.
