anyone know what fatbombs



Recommended Posts

I've never heard of them, but I'll eat a spoonful of Peanut Butter if I'm craving sweets in the evening. Is that similar to what you're talking about?

You can go to a low-carb chat type site or google fat bombs. It is a combo of coconut oil, butter, cream cheese, Peanut Butter or any combination you prefer. You can make them sweet (cocoa powder, splenda, etc.) or tart (lemon/lime juice) or whatever. You mix all the stuff together and pour into muffin cups or mini muffin tins (depends on the size you want). They keep in the fridge. The point is that they are like 75-90% fat and a couple hundred calories each.

Why would you want such a thing? I must be missing something.

Fat helps with satiety. If you're feeling hungry or just want something, rather than eating carbohydrates which cause insulin spike and then drop, which increases hunger, fat keeps you on low carb and satisfies. Just my guess. :)

edit - I don't know how this relates pre vs post-vsg. I think this was mostly for people on a low carb diet. Not necessarily for post vsg

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
