oh my god. i tried the atkins diet for a few weeks. it was horrible!!! all the low carb stuff tastes like crap! my bf and i started it one night. threw out all of our high carb stuff and went grocery shopping and got meat and stuff. after a few days, we were going crazy. so i looked on the atkins website and found that they sold food, so we bougth a ton of it. hell, they had cake, cheesecake, cookies, candy, etc. we wanted the good stuff any way we could. as soon as we got it and tried it, we spit it out. it tasted like saw dust. and the candy, they say there's something in it that's like a laxative.

I LOVE MY CARBS!!!

i'd rather work out 4-5 days a week, than go back on that damn diet!

I think it might be Sorbitol that's in the candy (or something like it). I know that's what they put in the sugar free candy and if you eat too much...well you know...
