| Glad you found something that works for you, Sam. There are many low carb plans out there and everyone is free to choose something they can follow and something they believe is healthy. That being said, on Atkins one should eat primarily natural, minimally processed foods. These cookies also contain grains, so they are not allowed before one reaches OWL Rung 9, regardless of the amount of carbohydrates per cookie. Enjoy your low carb plan, even if it's not Atkins.

Despite all your good intentions, you're mightily tempted by a food you're not supposed to have. What to do? I'll tell you this: You'd better have a strategy ready!"

| Right you are Georgiana! I stand admonished and corrected. I was trying to be helpful. I thought the idea was to successfully lose weight... not to stay rigid to a program. I will take my success story elsewhere. Sam |

The Atkins Diet, like any dietary plan, follows a set of rules. These rules may be more or less strict than the ones describing other low carb plans. However it is these rules that help many Atkinseers achieve their weight loss and health goals. If someone finds it difficult to stick to the rules of Atkins and make this way of eating a lifetime change, they should look for other plans (low carb or not) that better fit their needs. I did not bash your methods of losing weight. However, since your post was made on the Atkins Diet Bulletin Board, it should be clear that the members of this board are following Atkins (DANDR 2002, to be more precise). Therefore it should not surprise anyone that the advice given and the replies made here will only be pertinent to the Atkins Diet and not to other low carb plans. I hope your advice and story will help other dieters reach their goals on the plan they are following.

| I would just like to comment that any type of cookie if its low carb or anything else once I start eating them then I know my taste buds will want carbs so I would rather stay away but if you have the willpower not to overeat them and the diets working for you thats great keep going.
