Panicked!


Recommended Posts

I'm on Day 9 of my first Whole30.  I just took a few drinks of my Sparkling Ice water...only to realize that it isn't my "Sparking Ice Essence Of" water that is Whole30 compliant but is the regular Sparkling Ice that contains SUCRALOSE!!!  I probably drank a couple of tablespoons at most.  I'm now in a panic about what to do.  Do I have to start over?  I planned my Whole30 specifically so I would be through my reintroduction stage before my scheduled vacation.  HELP!

As Melissa says often, only you can decide whether you need to start over or not but personally I would not start over for accidental added sugar. Given that the whole foods that we eat have sugar in them accidentally having added sugar doesn't really cancel out your Whole 30 effects. It's good that you know cause sucralose is an artificial sweetener and isn't on plan but I say just push on. :)

A friend who successfully LIVES Whole30, lost 35 lbs and loves the lifestyle - made suggestions on stuff from Costco. She likes Aildeless Apple smoked chicken sausage. I found it, but decided to try the bacon pineapple flavor instead. After havIing one link  for dinner, with eggs & spinach, I thought, wow, it was really sweet, are you sure? Turns out the apple style no added sugar. The one I chose has sugar, and the labels look almost exactly the same! I'm on day 3 and had massive withdrawals last night. I just don't want to go through that again! Sneaky little sucker, that sugar dragon. 

Im not staring over. It was one link and not purposeful. I may add 2 days in the end just to call it even, but it's not like I bought and ate dozen doughnuts and ice cream. But it sure bummed me out. Mean, sneaky sugar....
