Two hour 116. Adequate. ;-)

Uh, nope.

You really must know the one hour number to know if it was a disaster or
not.

One hour number, shown above, was 112.

If you want REALLY good syrup, buy a sugar free one from the
supermarket, and order some natural maple extract from online if you
can't find it in the store. Adding some maple extract to sf maple syrup
makes it taste much more like the real thing.

I don't think agave is going to give you good results, it's loaded with
carbs.

1 Tbs of agave contains 16 gms of carbs. GI 32.

IIRC, 1 Tbs of genuine maple syrup is 13 grams of carb. Why not have
the real thing if you're willing to ingest that many carbs?
