Hello again,

Thanks for all the replys. I'm also allergic to Splenda. I made some egg salad and added a little splenda and wow! I feel like I ate sugar. I think It's the malto-dextrin. Then I tried Pure Delite chocolate and the malitol gives me bloating and gas. Seems I'm extremely sensitive to all sweetining things. Aspartime doesn't seem to bother me but you can't bake with it.

I'm not on any medications for high or low blood sugar, so I don't have to monitor my bs. My dad lives with me and has a glucometer, so I guess I could take some levels with it. I did before and never fell too low, when testing. I just start feeling hyper and agitated when my bs falls. I can feel it and I have to run for some food.

Yesterday,I tried to eat 2 cm's, 1 RM and a snack but still I struggled in the evening. Ended uup eating some cashews. Should I add another cs if my bs seems to be crashing? I really want to do CAD/CALP because it's so much more reasonable as a lifelong eating program.

I really value your responses and experience.

Thanks again and blessings to all,

Grandma (Mary)
