On Induction you should be eating 12-15 carbs of allowed veggies & salad. For even more fiber, Dr. Atkins does recommend the psyllium husks Leenie mentioned. And as Shauna suggested, flaxseed is also an excellent source of fiber. The Induction friendly flaxseed muffin is a good way of working more fiber into your eating:
Muffin in a Minute (suitable for Induction)
Serving Size: 1
1/4 cup flax meal
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 packet splenda packet
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 large egg
1 teaspoon butter
Put the dry ingredients in a coffee mug. Or a bowl for a different shape.
Stir.
Then add the egg and the butter. Mix.
Microwave 1 minute (or more). Take out. slice, butter, eat. Set mug to soak immediately.
Cream cheese would go nicely, too.

Green beans, as well as spaghetti squash are allowed during Induction. Green beans are listed as "string beans". A ½ cup of spaghetti squash is 2.0 net carbs.
