No game 14,437 Posted October 12, 2013 My two favorite "quick fix" foods are Lean Cuisine Spring Rolls and Skinny Cow Salted Caramel Pretzel Bar.... Guess what my daughter's favorite Snacks are? Grrrrrr! Dang Amanda I'd steal the salted Caramel bar too! (I'm PMs again...) 1 NancyG reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NancyG 58 Posted October 12, 2013 Oh girls that is a whole other thread!!! lol those Cookies are deadly! I love them too much and have to make sure I don't eat them everyday they are high calorie but really big.. I think they are 170 calories per cookie! Two per pack.. Look at the evil man on the box! Lol.. he knows he has you hooked http://www.bariatricchoice.com/trioplex-bariatric-protein-cookies-chocolatechip-box.html That is a pretty cheesy grin that the "Chef" has on his face. I don't think they are that bad for 18 grams of Protein. On those days when I have to have something sweet I've been eating Anna's cookie crisps or Biscoff's Lotus Cookies. The only problem with these two choice is they have no nutritional value. The Anna's are 6 cookies for 133 calories, and 4 of the Biscoff's for 150 (I usually only have 2). Luckily there is only one week out of the month that I "need" to eat those, going to have to try the Protein cookies! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah when you look at it that way they do have value. They will fill you too. I just have to be careful with things like that and Protein Bars. How many times I've almost bought a Quest bar just to put it back down as not to open that door too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NancyG 58 Posted October 12, 2013 I have a friend that is getting sleeved on the 25th of this month. I told her it can conquer everything but period hormones...I don't think there is anything that can overcome those except time or more surgery! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So I never know when it's coming Like this week I wanted to eat! I mean eat! It's like my sleeve "relaxes" and I can consume mass amounts. I think uh oh there goes my restriction I'm broken! Then the period comes and I go back to normal again?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skinny in Here 83 Posted October 12, 2013 For me it's not as much the cost as it is the inconvenience. I live 20 minutes from the closest store and order most of my goodies online. When my grown kids or grandkids come over and raid my stash I'm screwed until I either make a trip to the store or place an order! I feel horrible, but I have started hiding my food, inside canisters, under my bed, in the back of my closet. I feel like an alcoholic or a drug addict. 1 gamergirl reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No game 14,437 Posted October 12, 2013 Oh Amanda PMS sweet tooth! I've been putting pumpkin purée, pumpkin pie spice, nutmeg and vanilla extract oh and stevia into my Greek yogurt! Yummy and funny enough no one else in the house wants any?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is kind of like going back to when you first started because you are sure when to plan for it and it is a whole new hormone cocktail to get accustomed to....fun times! 1 No game reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
