Hang in there Matt!
I know exactly what you're referring to...
...I also stayed on Induction levels of carbs for about 3 months and had a nice, steady weight loss. When it came time to try to add in some additional foods because I was growing bored, it was not easy. My instincts told me to avoid any more carbs for fear of sabotaging my progress.
When I sat down to eat my first 2 lowcarb tortillas, I was scared. But I ate them, loved them, and they did not stop or stall my weight loss. Since then, I've added in more tortillas, Atkins Blueberry Muffins (maybe 2 or 3 a week) and lots more veggies.
My menus are far more interesting now, and my body is getting what it needs while still losing weght.
You're right to be cautious. Proceed slowly and with care.
You can handle this.
Good luck!
