I didn't really snack much on induction, but here are some ideas-veggies, especially celery; a small slice of an Atkins Advantage bar (if you have a sweet tooth problem like me); sugar-free jello (it comes made in pudding cups, tastes great, no carbs).
More importantly, when you get the urge to snack, think about whether your stomach needs food or your brain thinks it wants to eat b/c you are bored, depressed, out of habit, etc. One of the hardest parts of any plan is facing our "emotional eating" habits. And eating at mealtimes only until comfortable, then stopping.
Personally, I have one small snack at midafternoon, and eat NOTHING after dinner. If you like, you can break up your meals, and eat 1/2 as much twice as often.
Good luck-it does work!
