Okay, I think that is where I was confused. The book says that if you get bored with Induction, but don't want to leave it, you can add one serving of nuts to your daily carb intake. I think this made me think that it was implied that you start with nuts when you start OWL. On p. 119, it says under "How to do OWL" that "our recommendation is that you add nuts and seeds first, then berries and a few other fruits..." It also says on p. 121 that "Most people start by reintroducing nuts and seeds and butter made from them."
So you can see how easy it was for me to be confused.




You are right, I forgot about that. I will keep that in mind.

I am going to start over completely, though I will do only one week of Induction, just to get myself into Ketosis again, and then I will do OWL properly.

By the way the carb ladder I posted previously was from the official Atkins website, not the NANY book.
