This is the ingredients in my 0 carb sweetner the brand is Superose Liquid sweetner I only use it in my coffee (decaf) in the morning with HC

Water, Sodium Saccharin N.f. 2.5%, Benzoic Acid and Methyl Paraben As Preservatives

I don't think so Jo.Saccharin is not a sugar alcohol.

Thanks Umpa I am just trying to find the problem ,I feel like I have to be missing something .

I find when I obsess too much on a problem it gets worse or doesn't get solved.Sometimes you just need to move on and give it time.If you are staying under your 20 carbs a day you will be successful.You have lost 21 pounds and that is great! But if you think you are missing something do what mouseissue does and write everything down and do the math.Then look at your list and if something stands out to you check the ingredient list or ask umpa.

I don't think so either Jo, sometimes the body just needs adjustment time. One thing I will caution you on is portion sizes. Remember, as you shrink you need less and less food to satisfy your bodies needs. Notice I said bodies needs not your minds needs  

I want you to really pay attention to your bodies signals to you, only eat when you are truly hungry, only eat enough to satisfy the hunger and follow the 15 minute rule.  I find the "half a dat" method that I developed very useful, simply make a normal plate then take a second empty plate and remove 1/2 of the food from plate 1 to plate 2....set it aside. Now you'll sit down and eat 1/2 the original portion, wait 15 minutes and see how you feel. If you're still hungry go hit up the second plate, if not.....well you get the picture
