Hey again guys, I have a couple more questions for you all. First of
all, why are you allowed to eat meat liberally during induction yet
you are limited in the vegetables that you can eat(the amounts of
them, rather than the kinds)?

the types of veggies are limited because some are high carb (like carrots or
onions)

What about artificial sweeteners? Are they alright to use? Today, I
drank my coffee black with nothing in it, but I'm curious if I can
start to use artificial sweeteners?

splenda, but i don't drink coffee so i don't know how it is


Is there a way to tell if you are in Ketosis? How is it that to start
you have to be under 20g of carbs for a couple of weeks? Will you be
booted out if you have 21g? And if so, does that mean you have to
start all over again?

Are some soups OK? I don't see them on the Atkins acceptable foods
page, but some have pretty low carb counts...Should I stick exactly
with what's on that page?

i would make your own soup.


Thanks again for all your help.

PS. Yes, I do have a book on the way!

wait till you get the book, read it then start. don't waste your time trying
to piece it together and not know what you're doing.
