Has anyone eaten fat free cool whip during their diet, i saw it yesterday in the supermarket and it had 0 everything, and i was wondering if anyone has ate it or is this a complete no no???

Seems like what doesn't have fat has sugar and what doesn't have sugar has artificial sweeteners..... And I recently read an article that said that artificial sweeteners raise your blood sugar just like sugar. Unfair!!!!!

I'm sure it does have bad things for you, like everything else. But now we eat so much less...it should not be too bad I wouldn't think.

I have not had any of the FF cool whip, but my Dad eats it with everything!!! He uses is to sweeten and cream up his oatmeal ( I know...silly man!!). My only word of caution on any of the diet things is watch the sugar alcohols, talk about tummy distress!!! They can blow you up like a balloon!!! The word "gas" does not even begin to cover it!!!

It's artificial EVERYTHING!! Even though it says zero on calories & carbs, I stay away from it because it's just fake food. I'd rather have a dollop of real cream. :girl_hug:

I would definitely try it but here in Czech the problem is we dont get so many fat free or sugar free stuff.Sure we have some yougurts,milk,pepsi and regular stuff but almost nothung else...no sugarfree sweets (mabye just a couple of them) .I guess the weight loss business isnt that big here but I would be thankful for having a better choice...

They also make sugar free cool whip, it only had 2 or 3 grams of fat per serving in it... everything else is zero.

So, you can do no fat -- small amount of sugar.

OR

No sugar... small amount of fat...

We dont have it here, but I know what it is and I wouldnt eat something like that. I'd rather do the damage with the real thing, or better yet, eat some fruit or something nutritious. I have the horrors over that sort of artificial food.< /p>

I'm afraid of it because it is so addictive to me. It was hard to get off sugar and white flour (er, mostly). Hard to get off Diet Coke. Hard to get off artificial sweeteners. Hard to stop believing TV food ads. I'm not going back.....

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
