That's splenda, alright

You're allowed 3 servings of sweetener a day. A serving is a packet or a teaspoon. This also includes your soda and whatnot, so if you drink a serving of soda, that gets deducted from your 3 serving limit. Make sense?

so im allowed 3 teaspoons? :P

anyone tried lemon in water and splenda to make lemonade?

i did, but it requires the 3 teaspoons for a glass of water, is your choice to spend the tree of them in just one shot.

Even to this day, I limit myself to 2-3 packets per day, as I favor savory over sweet for the most part as far as entrées go. Your tastebuds may shift so much with low-carbohydrate eating that you end up wanting less than that - you never know!

Or if you eschew any sweets completely, you may never go back to even one packet?

If a can of no-splenda diet soda says 0 carbs, do I only count it as 1?? Or is this not allowed. It's aspartame. I get a reaction to splenda (it makes my eye twitch) so i can't use it.

You are not supposed to have aspartame at all, but any artificial sweetener is counted by servings. A can of soda is one and a half servings, so it counts as half of your daily total of three servings. You are supposed to be breaking your sweet habit and dependence on a taste for sweets.

Besides that, diet sodas are known stallers and possible weight gain. They are made entirely of chemicals that are bad for you. They cause serious bone loss.
