sneaky carbs- in sugarless gum!?
 

I am forever chewing gum at work, especially now,with "ketosis breath".
I am a hairstylist, and I don't think having a customer pass out from my breath, would be good for business. :eek: I am nearing the end of my first 2 weeks of induction, and I have been munching away on the gum non-stop,until today, when I looked at the carb count and each piece has 2 carbs! I was shocked! I probably have close to 1 whole pack a day. That is just awful. Anyone know of any carb free gum or mints?

Usually it is all sugar alcohols, some people say they are real carbs, some say not. I don't count them.

i chew orbit [its my nicotine] non-stop it has 1 carb and 1 g sugar alcohol.. i dont count it :D

Yeah, I chew Dentyne Ice non-stop. 2 carbs and they are both sugar alchohols so I don't count them... and they have never slowed me down :)

The gum I chew, Eclipse, I think has 2 carbs and 2 sugar alcohols. Sugar alcohols slow me down, but the gum has no effect on my loss. Chew away.

Since I freak about the carbs, what I do for ketosis breath is constantly drink caffeine free peppermint tea. It's herbal, no carbs (unless I add Splenda) and it's liquid. I almost started chewing gum, but I couldn't because I'd rather have ketosis breath than possibly stop burning fat. That's just me! :(
