Which Atkins book/plan are you following?
NANY says to eat 12-15 net carbs of "foundation veg", and according to fitday one medium (6" dia) head of lettuce plus 150 g celery only amounts to 5 net carbs, so you are way short of that.
DANDR has a limit of 3 cups of veg on induction,so I used to choose the higher carb ones in order to be getting most of my net carbs from them rather than just lettuce (aka chewy water).
Your choices would amount to more than 3 cups I guess, so you would be overeating the 3 cups and should not be eating more than about 4 net carbs of non-veg carb foods in addition to be following the "most of" rule.
