I like Erythritol. Use it to make Keto Cheesecake Bombs. A little gritty but waaay better than stevia imo.

Dark chocolate, berries and whipped cream? Maybe stacked? Look at Lily's or 85%-90% dark chocolate.

Pretty much the only thing I can think of. I agree with everyone here, invest in a good low-carb sweetner and it will go far. I've made some witchcraft adjacent desserts with this stuff.

This is not the answer that you are looking for, but maybe a good starting place. I've started using Erythritol which is supposedly just as healthy as stevia, without the bitter taste. There may be syrups containing it?

1/3 cup Erythritol

Stevia in the Raw is what I used for stevia. I got it from Kroger. although people here are saying it's not the best option for staying keto. I ordered my erythritol on amazon and its this kind. Hope that helps!

I think erythritol is pretty cheap on amazon . 1lbs for $9.98

I try to avoid artificial sweeteners too, although sometimes I indulge in the occasional diet soda (prior to starting this diet, I drank soda all the time. Now it's water 95% of the time). That said, I've been sweetening my morning coffee with erythritol (like this stuff) because it's natural, has 0 glycemic impact, and basically has zero calories.

Here is the nutritional facts for NOW brand erythritol.

Hi OP,

Let me start by saying that you don't have to accept anything. Acceptance isn't always a bad word, but it is if it means you stop moving forward. Don't accept your station in life. Get a better education. Don't accept dying at 50. Stop smoking! The list goes on depending on you as an individual. We don't have to accept an early grave. We can live to see grandchildren, new advances in technology, and maybe even true AI. Who knows? You might even live long enough to become immortal.

That doesn't start with acceptance though. It starts with a simple phrase. This summarizes everything you'll be learning going forward.

Muscles are made in the gym, but revealed in the kitchen.

You don't have to accept weakness as part of life. You can become stronger, train yourself, and even learn self defense. You're in charge of yourself. Accept it or Fight?

Let's say you're grabbed from behind at some point in the future. How do you want the days before that to go? Do you want to accept weakness and be unable to fight back not knowing what to do? That doesn't go anywhere good.

or do you want to spend those days getting strong, knowing just where to hit, and making it hurt bad when they make the mistake of grabbing you? Prepared, fierce, strong, and safe.

So, what works? We've heard a thousand diets and thousand fads pushed by everybody and their brother. What actually can do the job? It depends on you, but the following can help.

/r/keto is not a new idea. You cut all sugar and carbs out of your diet, limit your calories, and watch the fat melt away. It works via a few different mechanisms, but it can be difficult to adjust your diet. Notice I didn't say go on a diet. This isn't a temporary change to the way you eat. You'll never go back to eating sugar or carbs regularly ever again. You can't. As soon as you do, the positive effects of this will be reversed and you will begin to gain fat again.

The type you gain back first happens to be the most deadly type there is. This is the type you have now. Luckily, it is also the first to go after you change your diet. That accounts for a lot of the reason people feel better in the short term. The hormones it produces are no longer interfering with your body's natural processes:

> Fat doesn’t just store calories—it’s a living tissue capable of producing and releasing hormones that affect your other organs. Because visceral fat sits near our organs, its release of these chemicals is poorly situated. Having more visceral fat can raise your LDL (a.k.a. “bad” cholesterol) and blood pressure. Visceral fat can also make you less sensitive to insulin, which increases your risk for Type 2 Diabetes.

The keto diet combined with /r/xxfitnress can help, but you're probably thinking you can't do it. It is too hard for someone like you for this or that reason. You know your hormones are out of balance making you sick, but it would take a lot to balance them out.

Let's look at Arthur's transformation using Diamond Dallas Page yoga. He was a severely overweight disabled vet on leg braces and crutches. He was barely mobile and in terrible condition. After he worked at it, he is now walking and running. That was all as a result of yoga and a careful change of diet.

Take a look at https://www.netrition.com http://www.knowfoods.com/ http://www.miraclenoodles.com/ and the locations in your area where the products are sold. You will find a huge variety of reduced carb or zero carb options of the foods you already enjoy. Bread with 5 carbs per slice down from 25 each or syrup with no sugar that tastes just like the real thing. National brands are even getting into it with Sara Lee's reduced calorie bread at 6 grams net carbs per slice down 75% from other types they make.

Staying under 40 - 80 net carbs per day sounds impossible, but you just have to look at what you eat and act accordingly.

Bai makes drinks that are basically sugar free Snapple made with alcohol sugar (doesn't get you drunk. Not the same thing) or other 5-rare sugars your body doesn't process.

All-u-lose and Erythritol are both good examples of diabetic friendly sugar that also works well in keto. You can make tea, coffee, and all your favorites without giving up your diet.

Beyond that, give yourself a cheat day every so often and have your favorites. You'll be amazed how great sweets taste after you cut the sugar out of every. single. thing. you. eat. It is amazing that food purchased from the store will have so much added sugar.

If you have questions, we're here to help. reddit is full of amazing information. You just have to take a look and ask the question. You can do it. I did and so did many of our friends. It works without you buying a book or subscribing to a service. This isn't for profit. It just works. Good luck OP.

Replacing the sugar with something like erythritol instantly cuts all carbs associated with sugar and it tastes similar.

Also, cauliflower rice is a good replacement for regular rice. It's not exactly the same but it's way better for you diet-wise.

I ordered all 3 of their sweeteners (Monk Fruit, Erythritol, and Reb-A). Took about 2 weeks to get here.

The monk fruit was really super sweet, but imparted a off taste to my mix (Wasn't a bad off taste; just different). I will be skipping the monk fruit as a sweetener myself, but may come back to it and try it in a bakery style juice. Used at .5% (Also I noticed a bit a gunkiness on the coil, but not as bad as using regular sweetener)

The Reb-A (Stevia) was also really sweet but it had a strange "bitter?" taste at the end of the vape that I didn't enjoy. It is better than some stevia sweeteners I have tried, but not something I would use again. Used at .75%

The Erythritol was AMAZING, but required a higher percentage to achieve sweetness. Basicly it's less sweet than other sweeteners, but it has no aftertaste and does not change flavor profile at all. It really is the most amazing sweetener I have tried. That being said I Ordered Erythritol off of amazon and mixed up my own recently. It would be the cheapest route, and probably the fastest way to get some. Used this at 2%.

I buy erythritol from the health food store and you can also get it online.

Good luck and let me know how the coconut milk goes! :)
