Well done Daschnook
Congratulations on your weight loss.
You ask how long it is same to stay on induction. You have 12 pounds to loose, so a few weeks may be OK, but from what I have read the last 5 or so pounds you should loose more slowly, ie up your carbs gradually, a week or two at each 5g increment, to stop there being a sudden spike of insulin when you increase them a lot. In going up slowly you will get to know what is the general maximum you can have before you start to put on weight again.
Interested to hear about you and your chinese food. I'm going out for a chinese this weekend and know I won't eat rice, and will look carefully at what else I order.

Why not keep a journal of what you eat. That will help others give you advice on food quantities, etc. Do you keep track of your food on Fitday.com? I know it is an American site, but it tells you what your daily calorie requirement is and it may be that you are not eating enough. You need to have a diet about 70% plus and that takes some doing!!! I know a lack of weight loss can be frustrating, mine is only happening very slowly now. Check out a few peoples journals and get a feel for what they are up to.
