So equal is my sweetener of choice- love it in my coffee. I had cut it out and replaced it with Stevia when I started out on MFP a month ago, because I was looking for somewhat of a more natural alternative. I definitely do not enjoy the taste of it as much as I do equal, but was kind of getting used to it. Last week, I ran out of stevia and returned to the equal because that was what I had in the cabinet- and this was the first week I did not lose any weight. I did some googling and have read that equal (aspartame) can stall weight loss while doing low carb. Has anyone else experienced this with equal? Coincidence?
