Warning about Walden Farms 0 cal dips....

**skelooth** · 09-07-2005, 12:02 AM

I don't know if it's because I'm on a low carb diet or what... but just a couple spoons of that stuff and BAM instantly bloated with water the next day! I've 'tested' it a few times, and I'm convinced that it's the walden farms 0 cal fudge dip to blame. That's what I get for eating chocolate flavored chemicals. I knew it was too good to be true.

haha, so true. But bloating is bad, especially at 17% bodyfat

2 spoons of walden farms 0 cal fudge dip is the difference of .25"-.5" on my abdomen/love handles... no joke. Not cool, not cool. :evil:

yeah, distension is bad too. Perhaps worse than retention :wub:

lol wtf my smiley tab doesnt even fit on the page it goes out an extra half inch

Hey Skelooth...if you want to find a different LC syrup/dip...

You can check out this site...they give product recommendation and reviews on LC products.

Here's what they say about some of the LC syrups out there:

It's a great sight for LC recipes as well.

i actually don't normally do the "low cal" thing. One of the staples of my diet, no matter which diet i'm on, is that I try to stay away from anything processed... and low cal foods are usually processed to hell and back. And for syrups, i can't have any type of sugar other than dextrose while on my CKD.

I agree. :yes:

Well you can still check out the recipes if you like. They are both LC and most of them do not contained processed foods/ingredients.

Say it isn't so!

I love that stuff in my smoothies. A couple of tbsps and a few drops of peppermint extract. Yuummmm!

**skelooth** · 09-07-2005, 01:12 PM

do you get bloating from it? I am ULTRA sensitive to bloating because of my low carb diet

SouthCaliDiva · 09-07-2005, 01:54 PM

No, I can't say I've had any bloating from it all. Been using it off and on for a couple of years. I like their salad dressings as well.

Pffft, suck it up, bloating is fun. It's not like people examine your BF every day, you're clothed! (I hope)

**skelooth** · 09-13-2005, 01:15 AM

they might not notice my BF%, but I sure do! Especially being a college student in a college where it's 2 to 1 girls to guys....

You should see my 'outdoor activities' class... whoa momma.... me and 10 gorgeous college girls hiking outdoors once a week.... then god said "let life be good".

I use these with the cal free preserves blueberry and strawberry on Ezkiel bread without any probs. They are a staple along with Divinci sF syrup
