Hi,
I also must admit that Cookies are my biggest downfall. After I had my surgery, I still had a craving for them. I had a fantasy of just chewing one up and spitting it out so I could get the flavor and sensation. I didn't do it - Thank Goodness! It was just better to go cold turkey. It has been more than seven months after my conversion from lap band to gastric bypass and I am doing well. I stay away from cookies and I am very aware of when I start to substitute crackers for cookies and I stop myself with a glance of a picture of what I used to look like or by remembering how sick I was. My advice is to be truthful to yourself. Don't fool yourself into thinking you can just have one. We all know that we can't have just one or we wouldn't be here.
