Sucralose..Trying to reduce sugar intake. Alternative to diet soda. Found sparkling water that has sucralose in ingredients but doesn't say amount. It says 0g for carb,sugars, sodium, calories & caffeine. Is this OK to drink and not raise glucose?

No matter what I do I cannot lose weight, all my labs are fine, no thyroid problems or nothing, I do exercise with a personal trainer, tried dash diet, fasting, low carb, EVERYTHING! My calorie intake is not more than 1300. Why I cannot lose weight?

Why is it that some people can eat a lot of high-calorie junk, never exercise, and not put on weight? Normal protein intake but high carb & high fat!
