What is your favorite hot chocolate?



Recommended Posts

I would love an instant hot chocolate that we bansters can drink without killing our calories. This morning, I did have a regular cup as that is all I have and the sugar is CRAZY! But I have really been wanting chocolate, so it is my treat for the week. I helped a little by using mostly Water and FF dry milk to make it creamy.

With all the diet hot chocolate choices out there, what is your favorite? Do you do anything to them to make them an extra special treat?

Thanks!!!

I like either the Nestles or Swiss Miss...they are about 20-25 cals per packet. I actually carry them in my car for when I stop for coffee, I just mix a packet in and add some sugar free Caramel or Hazelnut Syrup. The Nestles actually comes in a canister that I use while at home. 2 Tbls = 25 cals.

I will also mix in my Benefiber

Kab....during the weightloss stage I drank this drink a few times a day. It really did stave off hunger and helped with the chocolate cravings.

I also found a hot drink product that I love. Alpine sugar free cider...just mixed with hot Water. 15 cals. For me, Hot Drinks got me through some tough hunger spots.

Im currently on liquids (post -op day5) but I went to the whole foods place my dietitian recommended and got hot chocolate with marshmallows that is 70 cal BUT 15g Protein. I know I wont need so much protein from a drink once my diet progresses but I love this stuff. Its a BariWise product. I was wondering earlier if I could use swiss miss or something else. Fantastic to know Im not the only one who NEEDS hot chocolate!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
