Default Low-Carb Substitutions

How do you guys feel about the new low-carb subs for the high-carb foods that most of us LOVE but cannot eat? I am planning on beginning induction on New Year's Day but I can't eat any of these things even if I stay under 20g right?
I post a little on another board that is strictly atkins and they are sooo strict about EVERYTHING that I am beginning to wonder if I will be able to do this. They told me I can't even drink Fruit2o while I am on induction because it is sweetened with splenda (even though the liquid splenda has absolutely no-carbs!) I feel confident that if I am able to do the food substitutions (like low carb breads..etc) that I will be able to eat low-carb forever but are the low-carb substitutions only for weak people?? I know I can tough out two-weeks without them but I just feel like I could eat more 'normally' if I could use the low carb food subs AFTER induction. What is your take on this???
