hmmmmm that sounds nice syns for peanuts, sweet chilli sauce, brown sugar could be changed for brown splenda aint sure if u need to syn the fish sauce

I'm pretty sure fish sauce is free and you could leave out the chilli sauce and use fresh chillis chopped finely instead. And, as you say you could swap the sugar for sweetner.
