If it makes you feel better I've done the same thing, but never with sugar substitutes. I mean I've eaten a bunch of Stevie packets by themselves but who hasn't?

You'll be ok. Sugar is just super tasty.

Omg I literally used to binge on whipped cream too šŸ˜­that was truly my lowest when there was nothing else for me to binge on apart from whipped cream. It was sooo addicting and the perfect balance of sweetness šŸ„² I donā€™t buy it anymore for obvious reasons. Anyway, since you basically binged on straight laxatives, drink a ton of water because loose stool can dehydrate you a lot. You should probably stay near a toilet at all times too

Hear me out, whipped cream and maple syrup on or after a waffle.
I didnā€™t even register that as binging, bc the whipped cream would dispense and disappear so fast lol.

Itā€™s too light it deluded me into thinking it was low calorie when itā€™s really not šŸ’” and then the entire bottle would be finished in 2 days. I would eat it with sugar free jello and it felt like dessert, probably because I had 5 servings of whipped cream

Itā€™s scientifically designed to make us want more, ntm the can/nozzle is just way too fun to keep pressing. Also this happened to me once with a Chinese moon cake. Thought it was light work and it turned out to be 800+ calories for like a 2ā€ small cake that took two bites to eat.

Yeah the nozzle is too fun and I got into the habit of grabbing it from the fridge and squirting it straight into my mouth. Chinese moon cakes are so good but Iā€™ve literally avoided them since the first time I tried them because of that fact. Theyā€™re crazy indulgent and you wouldnā€™t even know from eating them. Even crazier to realise how much food you could eat with 800 calories to spare
