Hot Chocolate

[cmaloney 151]

Hey guys - wondering if anyone has had hot chocolate (will use skim plus of course). Getting chilly here in NY & was dreaming of something nice & warm. Don't know how the sleeve will like it. Anyone try it yet? Was sleeved on 9/17..thanks!

maybe you need to wait a little bit your early sleeved.

Only sugar free...regular version has too much sugar. I'm in ny too...freezing!

Oh yea! I'm almost 5 weeks postop and I have been indulging in the SwissMiss Diet hot chocolate made with water-I add a little squirt of whip topping spray to the top and it is awesome!!

Only 25 calories and tastes like the real deal.

I agree, the Swiss Miss Diet or No Sugar Added are good ways to go. I don't do the whip, but to each their own.

You're far enough out to try it and see how you tolerate it.

Drinking a cup of sugar free as I type, I am 10 1/2 weeks post op, but had it at around 7 weeks out. It's chilly in PA as well!!! It's great on a chilly night for sure.

I LOVE my hot chocolate!! That helped me a lot when i was first pre-op and getting dehydrated. And a dash of whipped cream tops it off!!

I use Nestle's fat free. It's in a canister. It does have a bit more sugar, but I use Water instead of milk so the carb total is low. And to me, this one tastes the best. For ME, if i'm going to indulge in something now (and for the rest of my life) I am going high quality.

Good question!

I wish I could find a Protein Powder that didn't clump in hot beverages, that would be perfect for hot chocolate!

Bariatric Advantage has hot chocolate. I had it several times right after surgery might need to break it back out it was good

Proti 15 by bariatrix has a hot chocolate and latte flavored drink. 15g of Protein for 8oz mixed with Water.< /p>

You might also try a hot sugar free apple cider by alpine. It has warmed me up quite nicely, with the heat radiating from stomach outward. It is very low cal also.

I highly recommend Healthwise Protein hot chocolate. It is allowed by my doc in the first two weeks after surgery -- counts as a full liquid. Very low carb, 15 g protein. There are lots of flavors: original, raspberry, mocha, mint, amaretto, etc. It's VERY good.

YUM - they all sound great! Thanks so much...knew I could count on you all.....
