Default Lay off Aspartame!
I've lost a fair amount in the last week, but haven't been showing purple on my ketostix.

I decided to kick all aspartame drinks and stick to just cold water, and within 24 hours, I'm purple!

Just thought that it might be something that is causing other to stall.

I re-started my induction monday and had one caff-free diet pepsi (12 oz can) then, plus a 20 oz bottle of diet DP with berries and cream last night. Both products contain aspartame of course. I noticed my stomach went real loopy drinking the diet DP so I may consider stopping it and just drinking Diet Rite occasionally instead.

I tried to research, but could not figure out the conversion rate for a can or a 20 oz bottle. Help me here.

ETA: Nevermind, I found Splenda And Diet Cola - How to Count to be a fine source of info, LOL.

Thanks for posting that. Aspartame really is such a common staller in people. I am sorry you had to learn it the hard way, but hopefully other people will read this and you will have saved them.

I tried the Coke zero and while it has no sugar or carbs and taste great it is also made with astartame, which I noticed towards the bottom of my bottle. And it has slowed my loss down DARN IT and gave me sugar cravings!!!

Aspartame, splenda........ Any of them make me a hungry hippo!! I have learned to avoid em all, or I will find myself stuffing my face like its Thanksgiving Dinner

Everyones different, but I think its a stall for most.

Would it hurt to have one diet drink a day or every once in a while. Sometimes it helps me to not overeat by sipping on a diet soda.
