Hi Jacci:
WELCOME to the FORUM and lc'ng. Your are in for a great adventure in eating. CONGRATULATIONS on your 3 lb loss. GOOD START
But....while you are in Induction I would advise you stick to the basic foods outlined in the plan and try not to get too fancy with your foods at first. That way you will get a good head start on your weight loss. I lost 10 pounds on Induction. After you have the initial weight loss YOU WILL more than probably slow down. (I am three weeks now without a loss). What I mean is just use natural foods, i.e., eggs, butter, bacon, meats, fish, chicken. Try to keep your numbers at Fat - 69-70%, Carbs, 3-5% and the rest to protein. To do this you will need to use Fitday.com to help you figure this out.
Also, starting a journal will let others see how you are doing and offer help or support when you need it. Take a look at my Fitday (located on the bottom of my post here).
Good luck to you
Rose
