Wow, what brand of soy milk is that?
But I'd have to agree. It's best to just stick to induction without trying to bend the rules (yet). After your two weeks of allowed foods, feel free to add that super low carb soy milk and even some natural peanutbutter (5 carbs for two tablespoons)
Before then, like I was saying above... break free. I was like you, fantasizing about what was allowed, but it helped me better adjust to adding carbs. I wasn't thinking about sugar and french fries, but nuts and strawberries.
I get my fat from olive oil mostly. I slather veggies in it and fry up ground beef in it. Also, if you eat fattier meats you will get a sufficient amount of fat. Avocados are also a good source of fats that are good for you. In addition, I take an essential oils supplement with fish and flaxseed oils in it. yay, fat!
You're doing great, it looks like. Just stick to it and you will adjust wonderfully to loving this way of eating.
