Induction Questions

Yesterday I picked up some sugar free popsicles and had some. When I went to log them in I discovered they were 4 carbs each. Ouch! I went over my 20 carbs by 10 carbs. Yesterday ended my first week on induction. I shouldn't have to start over as long as I am still in ketosis should I?

I actually wouldn't worry too much about it, yet...
Here's the catch: the carbs come from "sugar alcohols", which many people don't digest and therefore don't count.
Some people may absorb a little, and others may simply get gas and nothing else.
I am a sugar-free popsicle fiend, and routinely eat four in a night with no worries about kicking myself out of ketosis. I think you've got nothing to worry about, and no, I don't think you'll need to start over.
However, everyone is different, and if it is making you worry then you might want to avoid them during the Induction phase.
Good luck!0 -

Well only two of the four carbs are from sugar alcohols so be careful.
