Cheese is allowed on induction, so you can have it. Atkins says:
Quote:
You can consume three to four ounces daily of the following full-fat, firm, soft and semi soft aged cheeses*, including: cheddar, cow, sheep and goat cheese, cream cheese, Gouda, mozzarella, Roquefort and other blue cheeses, Swiss ......
All cheeses have some carbohydrate content. The quantity you eat should be governed by that knowledge. The rule of thumb is to count 1 ounce of cheese as equivalent to 1 gram of carbohydrate. Note that cottage cheese, farmer’s cheese and other fresh cheeses are not permitted during Induction. No "diet" cheese, cheese spreads or whey cheeses are permitted.
Individuals with known yeast symptoms, dairy allergy or cheese intolerance must avoid cheese . Imitation cheese products are not allowed, except for soy or rice cheese—but check the carbohydrate content

I am thinking I should avoid cheese but I will check with my doctor to be sure.
