I think caffeine affects each one of us differently. You'll just have to try it and see. You can always switch to decaf.

About breakfast - if you don't like bacon and eggs, you can try this:

1/3 cup ricotta cheese
1 egg
3 TB heavy cream

Heat on the stove at medium heat until it thickens, stirring constantly. When thickened, remove from stove and add 1 TB flax seed meal, 1 packet splenda, and 1 tsp vanilla extract.

This makes a kind of pudding and is fairly fast and easy. I usually add a pat of butter and another packet of Splenda.

I've tried numerous lo-carb bars. EAS AdvantEdge I like the best. But they do have hidden carbs and can stall some people, especially if eaten each day. Theres also Carb Solutions and Atkins among others. The powdered low-carb shake mixes by Carb Solutions are really good and they don't seem to have hidden carbs like the bars. I don't they would hurt on induction.

To get the pics and all, go to edit your profile. It's pretty self explanatory.

Hope this helps.
