Creamer

[abigailchristine]

Is it ok to drink the sugar free french vanilla creamer in your coffee during the int phase? Also I have been allowing myself a cup of sugar free jello with whipped cream at night. I have not lost as much weight as my girlfriend (who has less to lose) and I was wondering if these item were allowed or if I should cut them out?

Re: Creamer

Abigail Christine, the coffee creamer has sugar and corn syrup solids. It is definitely NOT allowed. What you should be using is real heavy cream.

Your sugar free jello probably contains aspartame, which is not permitted. You can make your own sugar free jello from gelatin and Splenda, though.

Have you read the book yet? If not, and even if you just need a refresher, you will learn a lot about how this unique high-fat low-carb system works under this forum's Atkins Phases heading.

The very best of luck to you!

Re: Creamer

The only thing that I sub in my decaf is half and half and then just a splash. If I do not have the heavy cream. then I will just go with a splenda and no creamer at all.
