Points to consider when you are on a weight loss diet:

If you are on a weight loss regimen, I strongly advise you to replace these biscuits, even the diet ones with any source of protein like egg whites, unsalted nuts, tofu or paneer.

This is not to be ignored that the diet foods are low calorie or low fat but can’t be NO CALORIE. Still, if you want to have the diet biscuits, the best way is ‘REPLACEMENT not SUPPLEMENTATION’.

Try to ascertain the daily calorie requirement and then decide if you can really afford to have additional diet biscuits.
Read the nutritional label of biscuit very carefully and if it says that the biscuit is low fat, you must know that low fat means at least 3g of fat is still present in 100g and mainly the calories come from carbs which can be disastrous for your weight loss.
Now, you have to decide whether your can afford these many calories as your favourite tea partners or will have to replace these with unsalted nuts or other protein foods.
