splenda

[muffy28]

hey everyone
just wondering can splenda make u stall????

[purplecat]

It has not made me stall. I actually just started using it about two weeks ago and have lost more than I thought I would at this point. I'm happy. Plus, I'm addicted to cream cheese with splenda (tastes just like cheesecake). It's my little bit of heaven at the end of the day!

I don't have probs with splenda, but I know some people do. You could also try saccharin or stevia... they are both Atkins friendly.

I have used it for a long time never had a problem with it.

oh okay just making sure...cause i am diffently stalling rite now and not to sure why......

[tacfla]

Maybe post what you have been eatting and some of the people that have done Atkins for a while can see whats stalling you.

I find that if I eat too much cheese or those enduldge Atkins bars, I stall all the time. I also found that if I log every bite I can usually find where the extra carbs are comming in. I use fitday to log everything.

Hang in there we can get through this.

Good Morning Muffy! i had been going thru a nasty stall for weeeeeeeeks... and 2 weeks ago i stopped using Heavy Cream and slowly but surely, the weight started falling off again... remember now, im not as young as you are... (im 47 ) but i did LOVE Cream in my Coffee and used it in a few recipes too, but i know now that i cannot have it... it mades me sad, but IF this is something that you use... you might want to cut it out for a week and see what happens...
the splenda doesnt hurt ME at all... thank goodness...

I stalled for two weeks. Problem? Flax oil. I have hypothyroidism and a thread on here led me to believe it was the flax oil. I stopped using it and started losing weight like almost immediately.

okay.the only thing i started doing was drinking tea every morning with slpenda and lemon..then my weight came to a complete pause..so maybe i need to cut that out....

Does anyone on here have problems with Splenda making their heartbeat irregular? I don't feel well when I have too much aspertame either. I need to try xylitol or erythritol to see how that does.
