Guest guest Posted April 23, 2001 Report Share Posted April 23, 2001 Dear Norma does your jello have aspartame or splenda?? some people say anything sweet stalls them cus sweet things can fool the body into producing insulin even if they arent sugar.. if your jello has aspartame i would cut it out for sure how bout portions of food or really fatty foods are you eating anything thats mostly fat or in large quantities? catherine ----- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 23, 2001 Report Share Posted April 23, 2001 Yes the jello has aspartame. I do believe I ate it last year when I was losing but I will give it a try. Not too much fat except some cheese is very fatty. I eat chicken wings, pork chops, hamburgers, steaks, salads broccoli and cauliflower. Some times an 80 g bag of peanuts which is lees than 10 grams and sometimes pepperoni which is not good as there is flower in it but I do not know how much.

Guest guest Posted April 23, 2001 Report Share Posted April 23, 2001 well norma only thing you can do is cut down your portions of meat maybe and up your portions of veggies a bit and see if that tweaks the diet for you i am trying to eat less and guess what you end up hungry when you do that keep your dairy under 4 oz and you know i would lose that whitener stuff cus i dont think its good for you ..can you drink your coffee without it? catherine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 23, 2001 Report Share Posted April 23, 2001 Dear Corky yes i have read it several places my dad told me that when it first came out and he did alot of work with diet foods hes a chem engineer. he always told me it would actually make you gain weight just now i looked in my Pescatore book to see what he says about aspartame and i quote "aspartame interferes with blood sugar metabolism, because it may be able to mimic the effects of sugar on the body, thereby causing insulin to be secreted " i have read this in other books too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 23, 2001 Report Share Posted April 23, 2001 yes i knew about aspertame catherine. What i had never heard of was the sugar free jello causing stalls. But i guess if it's made with aspertame then, duh, it might. do they make it with splenda yet? I still think norma isn't losing because her metabolism slowed down when she quit and it needs to be sped up for her to lose.

Guest guest Posted April 23, 2001 Report Share Posted April 23, 2001 I think I recall it was the citric acid in the Jello that some people thought was causing them to stall. Terry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
