I think it's because Atkins bars have sugar alcohol in it while the pork rinds are just pork skin fried in oil with a little salt added to it. Some people here says that artificial sweeteners and sugar alcohols stall them out and wreak havok on their tummies. I personally think the Atkins bars are horrible, so I don't have any problems staying away from them. Pork rinds have many uses, and I especially like to melt cheese on it and eat them with sour cream and salsa

Hey, 7 pounds in 10 days, that's pretty darn good!
