Thank you for the experienced advice. I can't tell you how much I admire your diet results. That takes a lot of good sense and sticking to it -- more than I usually manage, alas :-)

I got really unhappy with Splenda a few months ago when I read a doctor's report that the stuff DOES have calories. It can be advertised as zero calories under the arcane rules of federal bureaucracy, but it does have a few calories. That made me grumpy, so I went back to Equal for a bit. That made me grumpy about opening too many little blue packets. I'm back to Splenda, calories or not.

Yep, by rounding even bacon could be a “zero calorie food” if you made the serving size small enough.
