Hi! I have used Splenda since surgery and haven't had issues. I think I've read where some people have an aftertaste from it or that it can cause sugar cravings but it is my go-to (I use in baking too). I like to use the skinny girl, Jordan's or SF torani syrups in my Greek yogurt. Another option in plain Greek yogurt is SF instant pudding powder or PB2.

I use Splenda like I'm afraid they're going to stop making it and haven't had any issues. Proceed with caution just in case you don't tolerate it as well as you have in the past, but it should be all right.

NNJ - You may want to start with "less", than you used pre op, as things may taste extra-sweet, to you...

To this day, I have to mix Crystal Light-type drinks double watered down. They taste super sweet, to me...this from a previously die hard real Coke drinker !!!

I have not had any problems with Splenda or any other sweetener. I recommend Stevia though because of some of the adverse articles concerning the artificial sweeteners. Trying for health all the way around.
