Stevia is a good alternative. It is a fiber and is a plant derivative (I believe from South America) and there is a brand I use called Sweet Leaf liquid stevia. It comes in flavors so you can add it to your water (carbonated if you like soda) You only use about 2 drops to 16oz. of water so the bottle lasts a long time.
By the way, I am back on track with my diet. Thanks for all the laughs.

That perches in the soul,
And sings the tune without the words,
And never stops at all -Emily Dickinson
