Default Artificial Sweeteners

Sugar Free jello is allowed during induction on Atkins plan. HOWEVER, you will need to gauge your body's reaction to this. Artificial Sweeteners can cause weight loss to slow in some people.

The new Atkins books recommends a limit of 3 packets of Splenda a day (which I guess would also be or 3 serves of AS product).

Avoid aspartame (look for code #951).

Personally, everyone has a different view on the diet drinks. For me, can't beat good old fashioned ice water. Even if you do drink the diet drinks, you should still consume your water 8 or more glasses a day depending on your weight.

It comes down to you making the decision based on what works for you, and what you are willing to give up or not.

Good luck with it
