These are 'low carb' Rolos for Atkins followers. Hugely expensive, but maybe it's worth it if you're committed to the diet. I personally rthink the Atkins is a load of old  and would rather treat myself to the occasional bit of real, reasonably priced choc!

REALLY?? wow. i dont rate low carb, for weeks i have been eating super high carb and low calorie/fat and have lost a hell of a lot of weight. however, this was only done in preparation for the coming fe(a)stive period, where i'm going to be somewhat indulging.

I too don't believe the Atkins diet is healthy. Just because you shift weight on it , it does not mean it is good for you. For example becoming anorexic shifts weight but it can also kill you.


Humans are supposed to eat carbohydrates. That's why we have long guts. I am currently on a diet and have lost a stone. In the past I have found it relatively easy to lose up to three stone by eating a diet rich in carbohydrates, low in fat and rich in fruit and vegetables.


Foods such as chocolates, biscuits, cakes and other high-fat, high-sugar foods i either leave alone altogether or eat very sparingly.

Down with Atkins!! A healthy, balanced diet is all you need. A lot of fruit, vegetables, complex carbohydrates and lean protein in one hand, an awful lot of chocolate in the other = perfect balance!


A healthy mind is just as important as a healthy body, and who could have a healthy mind without chocolate?!

What I mean is - when I am on a diet I don't mess with faddy ideas, I just eat complex carbohydrates, low fat, loads of fruit an veg - and eat chocolate etc sparingly. When I'm not on a diet - I up the chocolate!
