Craving something sweet



Recommended Posts

I tried this a few weeks ago and loved it! I did it crustless and added a few nuts and SF chocolate chips... you might wanna leave it plain at 4 weeks but it would be good for the pureed/mushy phase.

Won't be sweet if you eat it plain (Ricotta). It reminds me of cottage cheese' date=' only dryer. How bout plain or vanilla greek yogurt, mix in Tblsp. of lowfat/low sugar Peanut Butter then swirl in SF Jelly of your choice and viola! PB + J![/quote']

Well, that's genius.

If you are craving sweet, melt a piece of chocolate in your mouth, dark chocolate is better. But don't deprive yourself to that's all you think about. Just have it but don't make a habit

I mix a 6 oz plain Greek yogurt with two tablespoons of fat free/sugar free Jello pudding mix (the powder) and then add in a couple packs of Splenda, and it tastes just like cheesecake!

You may not be able to have this yet but I bought some chocolate Protein bars from Bariatric Choice, they taste just like a Nestlé crunch bar and they have 160 calories, 6 carbs, and 10 grams of Protein, I don't eat them every day but when I crave chocolate it hits the spot!

Nonfat/sugar free pudding (there are many flavors available), plus a scoop of Protein Powder in the mix when you make it... I have some cheesecake flavored ones in the fridge, which I added a scoop of chocolate Protein powder to the mix. Gets your protein in and tastes good.

sugar free jams are very sweet if you are looking for that sweet to be satisfied. Careful with the ones with any seeds in them. Add it to yogurt or cottage cheese, very satisfying.

Trust me, at this stage if you eat more than a bite or two of anything with sugar you will probably be miserable. There are a lot of good sugar free options, keep trying until you find the right one. Good luck, and don't give in. You can do this!

Sugar Free Chocolate puddings have saved my life since surgery. I have one every night as my desert. dinner is so tiny and we eat early so I need something filling and with Protein before bed. At 3 months post op, I add finely chopped almonds for crunch and my sleeve tolerates it well.

I sometimes go out and get sugar free fat free French vanilla Froyo with fresh strawberries but I am 12 weeks idk how far out you are but you may need to skip strawberries. There are 70 cal in 8 oz at the place I go and it really doesn't have that weird"sugar free" taste as some things do :)

        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!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
