Good Morning!

Has anyone had issues stalling or gaining using stevia? I use it 2-3 times a day and my losses are moderate. I've lost 15 pounds in 16 days and had a few days where I've stalled. I'm just trying to look at my habits and make the adjustments needed to maximize my losses. I use a stevia powder from Trader Joes and Sweet Leaf liquid drops.

I have been using Stevia daily in my qt of green tea and I am loosing at least .5 a day. I don't think it's bad. Or I hope not. I am interested to see what others say on this matter.

15 pounds in 16 days?? I don't think you've stalled anywhere! Apparently the stevia s not hurting you one bit!

Thanks for the replies. I'm new at this so I made an error I'm on VLCD17 and have lost 15 pounds. I'm happy but was just wondering about stevia. It tastes so sweet and good and I feel like it shouldn't be allowed! LOL

Also, I figured out that carbonation makes me bloat and now I can't have Zevia! Just when it was getting good. :-)

Lol...thanks lilshelli! I hear ya! I bought the vanilla cream.....so good. I will have to try the English toffee since it seems to be so popular.

I put the vanilla cream in seltzer water, I found some with ZERO sodium @ Wal-Mart!!!! It's amazing!! Like cream soda!

Hi Sonderah,

I've been using the hell out of steva but I think I'm having a few side effects like gas and bloating. Not sure, but I plan to give it up for a few days and see.
