In the edition of the book before this one. Atkins does say that if you are not losing weight on induction, take out the salad until you get into ketosis. Further in that version, you can only have a salad of 2 cups raw vegetables on induction.

I think (my personal opinion) that if people aren't getting into ketosis or losing weight during induction, they need to get a little stricter, "run clean". Veggies can always be added back later. Sometimes too many in the beginning can keep you from starting weight loss where additional once your body is used to ketosis won't throw you out.
