I find any (low carb friendly) sauce that tastes good on noodles also goes pretty well over a couple of scrambled eggs.

but I found very difficult to do and so quit before seeing results.

Dr. Westman is maybe the primary torchbearer for Dr. Atkins original approach. Something he makes clear is that the rules of induction (which he basically uses throughout a patient's whole weight loss) aren't written the way they are because they're necessary for everybody--but because keeping them that strict starts things at a place where the people most resistant to weight loss will be helped, if they do follow the diet. If somebody shows up saying they've been eating nuts, or more cheese or heavy cream than is allowed on the diet, and they've been getting good results--he'll say, okay, that seems to be working for you, just keep an eye on it, and if it stops working, these are the things you should probably get stricter with.
If a person gorges on walnuts, they should avoid them. If they accidentally discover that walnuts are particularly satisfying, and that they help them to comply to the diet otherwise, it turns out walnuts are maybe a good idea for that individual. What I'm getting at here, in a long-winded way, is--don't let veggies be a deal breaker. Atkins plus a little extra spinach, lettuce, celery etc. is better than going off the diet entirely. There are better low carb options that can fit more salad into less carbs, but if you're just a couple of slices of tomato or some chopped onion away from sticking with the diet, that's okay, too.
