    I,m not knocking the special k diet but seems to me any cereal would get the same results if one is only having two servings a day and a sensible dinner.I dont think it is any different than having slim-fast.

    If you only eat that many cals of ANYTHING, you'll lose weight. It's a stupid diet and very bad for you. No nutrition at all in cereal.

    It is just creating a calorie deficit, just like MFP does. The difference is with their plan you have to eat lots of carbs and sugar in the form of their Special K products. It is cheaper, healthier and easier just to eat real food.
  • There's alot of nasty chemicals in the Special K low cal chips. I wouldn't recommend them, even though thye're hyped as a low cal chip. There's a derivative of MSG in them that's really bad. Can't say much about the cereal, but it's rather boring tasting. I prefer a bowl of oatmeal in the morning, good for you, plus fiber to keep you full.
