is yogurt a bad idea?

You could eat unlimited eggs, sausage, bacon for breakfast. You can
have most cheeses. You can get sample menus if you don't want to buy
Atkins stuff if you need more exotic meals like pankakes somehow made
out of pork rinds instead of flour at websites like
http://www.lowcarb.ca/recipes/breakfast.html

Yogurt and avocadoes aren't in the spirit of an Atkins diet but you
could have a measured amount of them if you have to after you're done
with induction.

Avocados are perfect Atkins food, where did you get that idea. Not from

What is "this?"

What will I eat for breakfast if I can't have
yogurt?

Nothing wrong with plain yoghurt, the zingier the better. The carbs in
the milk are consumed by the culture and turned into lactic acid. Watch
out for the pre-sweetened ones, though.

You'll probably want to learn to read the back of packages in order to low
carb effectively.

And what about avocados? Are they ok?

I think they're excellent.

And what's wrong with omelets, bacon & eggs, or quiche for breakfast? Or
chicken breast or salad or....?

I don't think so! Even Atkins says you should only eat until you're not
hungry. You're not supposed to stuff yourself. Calories still count.

You can
have most cheeses. You can get sample menus if you don't want to buy

Since when aren't yoghurt and avocadoes "in the spirit of an Atkins diet?"
Both are low-carb, and yoghurt can be made high-fat if one wants.
