[colinwants2bthin]

Hi
4 Days in and learnibg all the time. Spending hours reading on this board. Great hints and tips although gor a newbie it can be a bit to take in. I started on Monday and did the usual shop for low carb products. I just wondered if the sweetener I purchased is OK. Its called Hermesetas Granulated Sweetener with added fibre.

Carbs 0.28 g per tsp
Sugars 0.02 g per tsp

Ingredients: Maltodextrin 55%, Frucofibres (inulin)34% ,oligo-fructose 8%, Aspartame 2%, Acesulfame-k 1%.
Thanks

Colin, look for a jar of Splenda. It's in a jar with a yellow screw top. Its the best sweetener that we can use. It contains no Aspartame, which is a common staller in people.

It can be found in most big supermarkets.
