This is what I'm doing, just going with it. First of all, I'm low carb so if I say "Atkins", that's, even now, still a buzz word. My husband will say Atkins, tho. However, we never did induction. So really we're just eating how we hope to continue eating which is no flour, no sugar, no high GI fruits.
Also no bread BUT I will make an exception for something truly whole grain with a lot of fiber. That just cuts out MOST bread since they CLAIM they are whole grain but it's really hard to find. If bread is not good enough to be eaten on its own instead of merely as a meat holder, it's off limits. Actually that's VERY easy to do. Think about how may crappy buns you've eaten along with that hamburger.
Also no rice but, again, will eat a nice pilaf that has some good fiber in it. And hoping to make quinoa a viable alternative since it's such a good source of protein and relatively good source of fiber.
And, of course, salads and good cruciferous vegetables.
I honestly just realized I was an overeater as one doesn't have to be a binger to overeat. I thought as long as I wasn't binging, I wasn't overeating. So just realizing that and realizing it's okay to put the fork down has been a HUGE help to me.
