kellyrockhaha, amen. i think that many coaches warn newbies to stay away from sweetners at the beginning because in some people it enhances the cravings for carbs and sweets. i think once you've got the program under control and aren't prone to cheats too often using splenda as a sweetner everyday is fine. i use it everyday in coffee and i've used it in the rhubard recipe. i have yet to try any of the flavored splenda sweetened sparkling water or sodas because there is citric acid in them and i have been warned (i think it was carla) not to take in citric acid.
i say if you have sweetner and it makes you crave and cheat, don't use it, if you have the self control to use it wisely-go for it, it's all over the ip boxs' nutritional facts!
i've heard stevia was awful and haven't touched it,
pita did you end up liking it?
