240 calories really isn't that much.

it was pretty yummy but I found something about it irritated my throat. It might of been the splenda, but I don't know.

I once bought a diet soda, made with Splenda instead of sugar, by accident, and started drinking it before I realize it was a diet-soda. I knew right away that something was wrong. This stuff tasted like regular sprite or 7-up or whatever it was, except slightly different, and there was something real peculiar about the taste that prompted me to stop drinking it even before i realized it contained splenda.

This is all conjecture but I don't believe this stuff helps people lose weight. I think it sets people on a vicious cycle of eating more. Why? Because your body senses a need for sugar and water to help provide energy efficiently (without expending energy on converting starched to sugar). You drink the splenda instead of sugar, and your body's food-o-stat senses that the chemical event that triggered your desire for sugar-water, wasn't moving your chemically-controlled desire level down. It contains very little sugar, so it can't. It is like a thermostat calling for heat, but the furnace doesn't produce any. So not only does it keep calling for heat, but it even increases its call, saying to the furnace work faster, pump fuel into the combustion chamber at a higher rate, because the temperature isn't rising fast enough. I belive the spenda causes your food-o-stat to not only continue to say, give me a bit more food, but now it says, we must really be burning food fast if my body doesn't sense any of the chemical changes in your blood and tissues that your nervous system senses, that mediate desire, that the food was expected to cause, so your food-o-stat starts calling for you to desire more food, faster; it starts increasing your desire for food.
