futuremrsparker 288 Posted June 26, 2013 My first period since rny is due this week and I am dyingggg for a bite of chocolate and some heavy carbs (bread, Pasta, etc...). This is so typical of my PMS symptoms that I know that's what it is... I am wondering if maybe I tried a bit of Sugar Free Chocolate, if that would help. I went to the gym to try and get my mind off of it, but I could seriously cry. What I wouldn't give to sit with a bag of Oreos, a glass of milk, and some french fries right now...

mylynn1377 93 Posted June 26, 2013 I have no sugar added mint chocolate chip ice cream. I get maybe a tablespoon in my tiny bowl. I have to be careful of the chocolate though because too many chips and I'm not feeling well. I have it in the freezer and I only get a bowl when I'm really dying for a sweet or when the fam is eating ice cream. I feel safe enough eating it because honestly ice cream was never one of my big triggers. I have forbidden anyone to bring brownies in my home ever. That's my kryptonite. As far as the carbs I have no idea what to suggest. What about sweet potatoes sliced up and baked in the oven? If you like them, which I do, and I was already using them as a sub for white potatoes before surgery. Oh and egg face has some awesome "cake" recipes that I haven't tried yet but I am willing to go for it. The reviews are good and there are quite a few chocolate types.

pookybear 284 Posted June 26, 2013 I've had Sugar Free Chocolate. I've also had regular chocolate. I just have it as a treat once in a great while and in small quantities. 1 mrsb12 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SoccerMomma73 1,867 Posted June 26, 2013 I day have a Hershey's kiss and kill the craving. If I really want something I obsess and am better off taking a bite or two and getting over it. If I don't I start feeling deprived and end up over doing it when I finally cave. HW 312, pre-op (RNY) 255, current weight 207.4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
futuremrsparker 288 Posted June 27, 2013 I ended up buying sugar free Hershey's mini bars with caramel filling. SO DELICIOUS! I are one and put the bag away (knowing they could give me the runs was a great way of forcing myself to only have one! Haha). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ajustice 484 Posted July 5, 2013 You can have ice cream? ? ? That's my kryptonite. I miss it so bad! ! ! And chocolate too? Do u have a homemade ice cream freezer? I've been thinking of using it to make my own healthier sugar free version on ice cream. I've found several recipes on the web. I'm a huge Pms craver of all things naughty.
