I'm off induction since Monday the 23rd. Therefore, do you think it is okay to endulge by having one of those bars if you crave something sweet?

These bars are 10g carb net apiece (and that's if you deduct sugar alcohols...not everybody does). When going off Induction and into ongoing weight loss, you're supposed to increase your net carb count per day by only 5g and keep it at only 5g more per day for at least a week and see how you do.
So a half a bar a day is your best case scenario and if your weight loss slows down or you feel bad, they're your first suspect. |
