Well, MellyAnn, some of us are wondering, what's this "only" 5.5 lbs complaint?? That's a great start. Clearly you're feeling good, and experiencing some excellent benefits already. In fact, impatience and unrealistic expectations are two reasons why many people quit way too soon. Keep in mind that you have literally the rest of your life to be a good loser.
There's no reason you can't continue with induction. In any case, you won't be adding fruit for quite a while, as all fruits are (as you suggest) high in sugar as compared with vegetables. Stick with very low carb (20g) as long as you continue to have good energy, absence of hunger, and no cravings. For variety, experiment with some recipes using the basic foods.
Best wishes.
