I'm glad you didn't mean to hurt feelings. It's so nice to come to a forum where people get along and really care about each other's problems and successes.

Getting back to the Splenda...I don't have first hand experience, which is what I know you're looking for, but I really don't think it's going to work out for you to be sipping on splenda the day through. The whole point of CAD is to keep the glucose levels low all day until the RM. Even though the AS's have no sugar, because of the sweetness, most CA's bodies react to it the same. The safest thing you could do is keep it to CM and RM meals only.

The absolute only real way you're going to know what you want to know is to do it and see what happens. Maybe do it for RM, gradually add to CM and then see if you can get away with it in between, but honestly, I think it flies against the program too much to have it all day long.
