Sugar substitute recommendations?

Trying to significantly reduce carb intake, who knew 1 teaspoon has 4 carbs!!

Anyhow, I usually use 3 teaspoons in my coffee and I am struggling to find an alternative, any thoughts?

      @pheonixmarie - I use vanilla premier protein in my coffee it is so sweet that I don't need any sweetener and I am getting some protein to boot. Stevia is also a good all natural choice

      I think splenda tastes most like real sugar. I dont think stevia is sweet enough for me and also has a tart aftertaste. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    I use a blend of monk fruit/stevia/erythretol 1:2:2. For my coffee- which I'm not having right now because of pre-op diet- I use 1T of the blend with 2t Cocoa powder, a double ristretto shot, 1 T coconut oil and 1 T grass fed butter. Blended to emulsify the fats, this version of bulletproof would hold me happily for 5-6 hours. Not sure how it will work post-op as I might not be able to tolerate the fat but it was the best 200 calories of my day.
