When I was little I was obsessed with baked goods- especially cookies, brownies and cake. At first my mother let me eat whatever I want, but then I really started to gain some weight. By the time I was in high school, I was 240 lbs. When I went away to college I discovered SPLENDA® No Calorie Sweetener. I replaced all my sugar with SPLENDA® No Calorie Sweetener when I could and started eating healthier. Since then, I have lost over 75 lbs. Eating a good diet, exercising and replacing sugar with SPLENDA® No Calorie Sweetener has really helped my success.

My mother has diabetes. She has it very much under control. I have gotten many cookbooks to help her keep her sugar levels down.
I started by making her Sweet Potato casserole about 12 years ago. It called for sugar, cinnamon and butter. I make this dish for most holidays and I have since converted this from a sugar to SPLENDA® No Calorie Sweetener dish. Since then, I have started making Pecan Pies or any dish she wants and I just substitute SPLENDA® No Calorie Sweetener. Today I used SPLENDA® Brown Sugar Blend and made pralines in the microwave. My mom is a loving person and has never had to do without the things she loves. No one knows that we substitute like this unless we tell them.

I was once 420 pounds. Try to imagine struggling to tie your shoes and often opting not to tie them because it was just too hard. Long story short, I had gastric bypass surgery and my doctor suggested using SPLENDA® No Calorie Sweetener along with other ideas to help me along the way. 10 years later...I am now 255 pounds and I find SPLENDA® is an everyday item in my home. I keep sugar for the hummingbirds only. Thanks to SPLENDA® I can live and not feel like I am being cheated out of life's simple pleasures. Thank You SPLENDA®!

Hi My name is Valerie and I have diabetes. I was diagnosed with this horrible disease at age 16. At first I didn’t think that having diabetes was all that serious, until I started feeling the effects that come along with not taking care of it. So, I started eating healthy, stopped using sugar and started using SPLENDA® No Calorie Sweetener. Now that my sugar is getting under control I feel a lot better.
