Ok so I am 3.5weeks out and yesterday my family who is visiting me, we were out and about in town. I was craving chocolate. Something sweet. So bad me I ordered a sugar free Peanut Butter cup. I had the smallest bite from the chocolate but ate the peanut butter from the inside. Was this ok? Or did I just mess up everything??

I wouldn't at 3.5 weeks out. I was barely on pureed foods. BTW I just ate yogurt, SF pudding, Soups, because the thought of pureed foods made me want to barf. However, I had gone that far with the procedure, I didn't want to risk it. The negative things that could happen is sliming, hot flashes, throwing up, or upset stomach. ;)

I had suger free dark dove chocolate from target around 1 month post op. I only had one a day though because it's full of fat calories. sugar free pudding, pops, chocolate- we should still check the nutritional facts. Hope I helped!

I have an occasional little piece of dark chocolate - NOT SF. I'm not a bypass patient so I can do a bit of sugar on occasion. I will choose SF where it doesn't make a taste difference. Gelatin, puddings and flavored syrups are SF.

Its probably not the worst thing you could have done... but I find when I give myself an inch, it leads to a mile... let your stomach rest. Soon enough you can have some treats. I had Sugar Free Chocolate pudding with a spoon full of Peanut Butter, or PB2, or almond/flax butter to get my Reeses fix as soon as it was ok with the Doc.... probably around 3-4 weeks... I still try to stay away from sugar alcohols too... they can cause gas and stomach upset... who needs that!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
