Only you can know the answer...test your blood sugar, not once, but 2 or 3 times after consuming the sweet. As others said, also note how hungry you are...if you are getting hungry again only 3 hours after eating it, probably not the best for you or weight loss. If you are desperate for a chocolate taste, Dr. Westman has allowed a shake mid-afternoon ("only" 8 total carbs and sucralose), but not the cookies, candies etc. The maltitol in them is like pure sugar and tough on the GI tract plus total carbs over 20g.. https://www.dietdoctor.com/atkins-fairy-tale-candy
