Hello!

I am wondering if it is ok to eat chocolate which states "no added sugars" "includes matitol" and it lists 2 carbs, out of them about 56 alcoholic (matitol?)

Will it have any effect on the ketosis and slow weight loss? or is matitol safe

Thanks! ^^

If you want to do Atkins right, for the first phase you really need to consume only Meat, Eggs, Hard Cheese and non Starchy Vegetables. After a couple of weeks then you can start getting creative and go about trying to make the diet healthier and more interesting for the long term if that is what you choose. Pick up a copy of Atkins book and read the chapter titled induction.
