Interesting subject/reading!! I kinda skipped a few pages of comments, but.....I'm 3 weeks out and I occasionally eat a single Club cracker with a thin layer of smooth cheese spread (darn you Sam's Club taster people) at the end of a day, maybe twice a week. I take small bites, chew them up into a paste...NOT hurting my tummy or weight loss and I get to feel that little feeling of "cheating" lol (I work hard to not think of it as a "reward" because we're not dogs and food shouldn't be used as a reward. Side note: My mother did this to me my entire childhood, not that I blame her or anything lol)
I'm one of those people who has never really ate too much of something, but chose the wrong foods for meals/snacks, so I CAN have just 1 cracker and walk away. Do I want 2? Sure!!! But I understand and keep reminding myself that I only have 1 year for this surgery to REALLY DO ITS JOB for me, and I'm not gonna blow it by overindulging with crackers. I prayed/worked too hard to get this surgery!!
I've tried the Wheat Thins (low fat) with tuna/low fat mayo, but that's a LOT of chewing to get the consistency I need. So giving the box to hubby!
