artificial sweetners



Recommended Posts

Ive come to realize that the only artificial sweetner I like is Sweet n Low. Everything else has a bolder aftertaste thats yucky to me, especially Splenda. I was just wondering which one you all prefer??

The only kind i dislike, is Stevia. For some reason it is horrible, most others I can handle, even agava or whatever it is called.

If you mean agave, it's not considered artificial. It is similar to maple Syrup in how it's produced, it just comes from the agave cactus, not a tree :) it supposedly has a lower glycemic index than cane sugar.

I hate stevia. I'm not sure how anyone is able to ingest that stuff. Ugggghhh

:D

Stevia is by far the worst lol... Truvia is quite nasty as well.

I actually like Stevia---but it's common knowledge that I'm a weirdo. :D

I prefer Ideal and, to me, tastes just like sugar. Unfortunately, restaurants don't carry it and it's not always easy to find so I end up mixing Sweet and Low and Equal. I *HATE* Splenda and Stevia has a funky aftertaste.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
