Has alot of carbs. I like the Atkins or some of the Protein Bars. Low to no sugar, low carbs.

These are just convenient and affordable. I rarely ever indulge. But I'm down 143.8 pounds in only six and a half months. Some places it's hard to find healthier alternatives like Atkins. We are pretty limited here :(

Totally a great snack that kills any sweet craving.

Awesome find.

A full serving is far too many but having 10 is just perfect

Where did you find these ? How far out are you ?

I got them in a normal grocery store. Only 1.99.

I'm six and a half months post op.

I've just tried these recently.

I suppose there are a lot of choices that are convenient and affordable. And if you choose to overindulge you can return to what you were or are. Surgery for me changed my entire life including the way I look at food. I can now eat a bite or two and not continue in a negative way. And I'm still loosing weight amazingly. In fact much fast then my doctor expected me too.

HW 334 surgery date August 23, 2013. CW 190 weight loss to date 144 pounds.

I order a lot of thing from Amazon and find them fairly affordable. The would be a great treat every once in awhile and like you said the biggest thing is not too indulge.

Sorry surgery was August 23 2012 not 2013

I'm very proud for you. I agree we have to learn to live like normal healthy weight people. Everyone is different. I am like you. I don't want to live so strict that one day I totally blow and eat everything. So I will allow myself a treat now and then. If you're "treat" is something with less that 8g of sugar, you are most likely still making a better choice than before!!!

Some people need to live by rules and NEVER indulge and that's ok. I respect their way of doing it as well.

Every person is different and every doctor is different. I have learned not to be judgmental after spending so much time being judged for being fat.

You are doing awesome!!! I hope to be as successful as you.

      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.
