Welchs Fruit Snacks



Recommended Posts

I am addicted to welchs fruit Snacks these fruit chews go right thru my band and I can't seem to stop eating them. Has anyone else had them? Do you think I need more restriction to help with this compulsion?

I have just recently had them and they are good! But at 80 calories or so a little bag, just not worth it to eat too many! What I have learned, and the hard way, is that the band is not about restriction for me. Maybe that works for a lot of people, but not for me. I have suffered being too tight and having to wait to be seen to have some Fluid removed. I never want to go through that again. So, I have accepted that I have to rely more on willpower than restriction . And believe me, I battle the food demons in my head all the time!! No matter the amount of restriction, chocolate can always go down just fine for me!

Those are good. Maybe you should not have ever tried them, being that you already have a band looks like you would be looking for something better for yourself to eat..Things like those are, (if you are like me) probly why you needed the band in the first place.

I hope you find away to kick them before they become a habit for you.

Just because you have the band doesn't mean you are always going to make the right choices. Sometimes I wish the band was around my head as well!

Oh i did not mean it that way. I was just saying if you already had the band why would you want to try another type of the same items that caused you to need the band in the first place. I understand that you would want things that you already have had before since you already know how good they taste but to try something else like those items will I dont understand because you know if you like it you will only want more and more.

      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.

      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!
