Seems like what doesn't have fat has sugar and what doesn't have sugar has artificial sweeteners..... And I recently read an article that said that artificial sweeteners raise your blood sugar just like sugar. Unfair!!!!!

I'm sure it does have bad things for you, like everything else. But now we eat so much less...it should not be too bad I wouldn't think.

I have not had any of the FF cool whip, but my Dad eats it with everything!!! He uses is to sweeten and cream up his oatmeal ( I know...silly man!!). My only word of caution on any of the diet things is watch the sugar alcohols, talk about tummy distress!!! They can blow you up like a balloon!!! The word "gas" does not even begin to cover it!!!

It's artificial EVERYTHING!! Even though it says zero on calories & carbs, I stay away from it because it's just fake food. I'd rather have a dollop of real cream. :girl_hug:

I would definitely try it but here in Czech the problem is we dont get so many fat free or sugar free stuff.Sure we have some yougurts,milk,pepsi and regular stuff but almost nothung else...no sugarfree sweets (mabye just a couple of them) .I guess the weight loss business isnt that big here but I would be thankful for having a better choice...

They also make sugar free cool whip, it only had 2 or 3 grams of fat per serving in it... everything else is zero.

So, you can do no fat -- small amount of sugar.

OR

No sugar... small amount of fat...

We dont have it here, but I know what it is and I wouldnt eat something like that. I'd rather do the damage with the real thing, or better yet, eat some fruit or something nutritious. I have the horrors over that sort of artificial food.< /p>

I'm afraid of it because it is so addictive to me. It was hard to get off sugar and white flour (er, mostly). Hard to get off Diet Coke. Hard to get off artificial sweeteners. Hard to stop believing TV food ads. I'm not going back.....

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
