Recommended Posts

i wanted some choclate today so i was going to get skinny cow but they didnt have it so my smart choice was dark chocolate which i hate, so nasty. well low and behold i picked out dove dark chocolate and i must say i like it. i chose dark because it doesnt have as much sugar and cream as milk chocolate. just wanted to share

I LOVE dark chocolate...a small piece will satisfy my craving. I even like sugar free "Special Dark"....tastes just as good, but gotta watch out for those sugar alcohols :blink: Learned that lesson the hard way!

Target has a really great selection of dark chocolate with a few gourmet varieties as well. I bought a bar that had some coconut mixed in about 3 weeks ago and still have over half of the bar. I just don't crave sugar anywhere near what I did before.

If you have a Trader Joe's near you they sell wonder 82% Belgian dark chocolate and is it ever cheep. I have a few squares with some almonds and coffee. It's heaven!

I'm in love with Green and Black's 85% dark chocolate. A "square" of it has 50 calories and tastes AMAZING when you dip a ripe strawberry in it. The flavor is intense and explodes with flavor in your mouth! Can't wait until I can incorporate this delicious indulgence into my diet again!

      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.
