Two-Week Induction Meal Plan (by ATKINS)

Two-Week Induction Meal Plan


Need some inspiration when it comes to planning your meals? We’ve put together two weeks of tasty ideas to help you get started. Keep in mind, of course, that this is just a guide. Atkins can—and should—be customized to suit your individual taste preferences, budget and lifestyle.

Following the Atkins Nutritional Approach™ means most of your meals should be made up of whole foods. As you begin the program, you should be especially diligent about avoiding any trigger foods, such as bread or sweet-tasting items, which may have created cravings or a loss of control that caused you to fail in the past. OK, ready to dig in? Bon appetit!
