Ideas for Sleeve Friendly Sweets?



Recommended Posts

I'm trying hard to stay away from sweets since those were the biggest part of my food addiction.

At night if I want something sweet I have a diet hot chocolate or herbal tea with Truvia. It is satisfying and helps get in more liquids, too.

I can't do Cookies either as that are a trigger for me too. My go to sweet snack is low fat Peanut Butter. It is sweet but also a source of Protein

Atkins bars or pure Protein Bars. I like the strawberry shortcake pure Protein Bar. Taste like strawberry shortcake but gives you 19 grams Protein also. and it is low in sugar. Sweets was my big issue also.

Eggface has a ton of Protein ice cream and truffle recipes on her website. I love her Protein truffles, I make mine with all expresso or mocha Protein powder and roll in walnuts.

I can't remember the brand, but Walmart has frozen honey greek yogurt pops that are yummy.

I also like a spoon of Peter Pan Peanut Butter with 4 chocolate chips on top. This one is probably not the healthiest, but very much like a Peanut Butter ball.

I don't know what your sweet tooth craves' date=' whether it just be something sweet or something like a candy bar. I went into my local Vitamin world the other day and was looking at the powders and Protein drinks they have available (because that is the ONLY place in my town other than Smith's grocery store & Wal-mart that has anything I will be needing for surgery) and I ran across these OhYeah bars. They had 4 different bars the one I tried was chocolate Caramel candies I was surprisingly shocked at how good it tasted and reminded me of "Candy" It has a soft filling with tiny M&M looking candies on top and covered with chocolate. It says "Good Grab right size right choice" (it's a little smaller than a payday bar) It has: 180 Calories, Total fat 9g, Carbs 19g, Sugars 8g, Protein 14g

I know calories and sugars are maybe a little high but if you do it once in a while it shouldn't be to bad, I figure with 14g of Protein it makes it ok ;}~

Also I just got the Bariatric Choice Catalog and it has some "candy bar" like Protein Bars. The SF chocolate Dream Protein Bar that looks just like a candy bar says it's similar to a Nestle's crunch bar it has: 160 cal, 10g Protein, 12g fat, 6g carbs, 0 sugar. So these are a couple things im planning on looking into. I hope this helps ya a little bit.[/quote']

Oh I never heard of Bariatric Choice. I'm going to google it

WonderSlim puddings have Protein in them and you don't have to mix them with milk. I buy mine off of diet direct .com. I also purchased some Omega 3 chews on that site that are fruit flavored and I love my calcium chews that I buy at CVS. They really help with the sweet tooth.

      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.
