Sucralose In My Protein Powder!!!

[alicecop]

Hey guyss, this is my second day clean of cleanest induction.

I have the headache and the ubearable thirst. I am always hungry too. I was hungry before going to bed and I had a tbsp of OO hahahahhaa. (enough protein already).

Anyways. At GNC I bought isopure zero carbs. Cero carbs listed. But in the ingredient lists says it has sucralose. Sucralose sounds like sugar to me....
what do you think??? Have I messed up???
I use around 40grs a day

Re: Sucralose In My Protein Powder!!!

Hi, sorry to be the bearer of bad news here, but protein powders aren't on the Atkins induction allowable food list at all. Sucralose is an artificial sugar and that can also cause some people to stall. You need to decrease your protein intake perhaps and eat those 3 cups of vegetables and also eat fat . . It's the fat that makes your hunger decrease, a lot

I'm assuming you have read the book, but a list of the foods to eat during induction can be found as a 'sticky' at the top of this section of threads for induction

Re: Sucralose In My Protein Powder!!!

Sucralose is splenda, which is an acceptable sweetner on Atkins.

that said however, I agree with sweetgirl you should cut out the protein powder during induction. You can keep it for later on but for now you should be getting more than enough protein from your induction menu. If you are concerned that you aren't, I would suggest posting a menu inthe review my menu forum, and we can take a look and see if there's anything you can change.

Re: Sucralose In My Protein Powder!!!

Thanks you guys, I'll post todays menu in my menu review forum.

yes I read the book. I assumed since it did not have carbs I could have it. Anyways I fell symptoms of ketosis, so I hope I have not messed up. Today I did not use any powder. I want to keep the induction as clean as posible.

Hope I can see you at review my menu forum for feedback.

Cheers!
