This has been interesting for me too. I'm about 5 months out and NEVER had a sweet tooth. My cravings were for salty foods and I couldn't get enough. Now though I seem to be having sweet cravings. Luckily it seems to be for things like fruity frozen yogurt, which I load with fruit and almonds only, but it is odd. When I want chocolate, I seem to do ok with sugar free ones.

It's fine as long as you are not selling something!

Oh and it's not a competitor of this site!'

The World According to Eggface (a blog) has some GREAT recipes, including ones for Protein mini donuts, and protein ice cream - both WLS friendly. But just as a word of caution... My surgeon does NOT recommend going for pseudo-substitutes - he feels that once your body gets used to sweets - even if they are "fake" or sugar-free - that you will start craving them MORE.

      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.
