Atkins brand foods

[maj811]

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone has ever used those Atkins bars...I think they come in chocolate peanut butter, smores and some other flavors. I bought one today and it says it's okay for induction, but says it has 19 carbs, only 2 net carbs. Is this really okay for induction or will it throw things off? Has anyone used them?

They stall or cause cravings (and stomach distress) for a LOT of people.

Rules of induction:

Acceptable foods list:

If the ingredients in those bars are not on this list, do yourself a favor and skip them.

Check the recipes site for some great induction recipes to satisfy your sweet tooth or to conveniently have to grab (the only two reasons I can imagine for the Atkins bars...it sure isn't price lol).

Hope that helps!
