I challenged myself to not eat a single piece of candy this year. So far so good :) I can't even give myself 3 pieces. If I start I know I won't stop. It's better not to even tempt myself. I'm too much of an addict!

I learned last weekend I can no longer have candy. I told myself I could have 1 piece. The next day I ate about 7 Reese's Cups throughout the day :( Candy is something I am going to have just ban! I think I'll be fine as when I do indulge I prefer a pastry of some sort lol

I used to completely ban myself from candy, and I am now going back to that policy. It's too easy to have 1, and then another, and then another. . .

I guess I feel lucky in that I can eat 1 candy and be satsified. If something isn't around, I crave it that much more. When I quit smoking over 20 yrs ago, I kept a pack of cigs in the drawer for a year. I knew they were there "just in case". Thats the way I feel about chocolate or Starburst, or whatever. As long as I have 1 pc in the house "just in case", I'm good with not eating it.

FIL bought 5 huge bags of YUMMY candy (in the past I've bought crap that I would never eat) He bought Snickers, Reeses, Kit Kats, Starburst, and Mounds and I plan on eating 1-2 pcs (if there's any left). Not sure there will be enuf trick or treaters to finish off 5 bags of candy.

Oh well. Lucky thing 1 pc satisfies me. It's too bad it takes a whole tub of popcorn to satiate me, however :(

I'm on day 2 of my pre-op diet.

My husband and son went out late this afternoon to buy the candy and I haven't seen it. I don't know where it is. I don't want to know where it is. I told them there should be no candy in the house after this evening...dispose of every last little Butterfinger (my personal favorite).

Instead for my meal tonight, I will have a fillet and some green Beans. And I will dream of the Butterfinger.

Me neither. Don't trust myself. My nemesis is reeses Peanut Butter cups. All other candy, I can eat one a day and not care. I used it have an open box of Godiva chocolates in the house and my kids and I would eat one piece a night. My husband can't do that so I stopped getting it.

But Peanut Butter cups? I can eat half a bag a day I'm sure if I let myself. My sweet, generous kids used to take all of them out if their stash and give them to me before they started eating their candy. Isn't that so nice? This year it's all theirs.

I'm surprisingly okay with this. I ate my Quest bar on the plane just now for dinner and I feel fine. Who knew this was possible?

I am 4 weeks post op and didn't touch any candy. Not on my plan right now and feared the worst if I even touched it-don't want to hurt my new sleevie. But it was hard! I didn't realize how much I really snacked until the sleeve forced me to quit.

I had three snack-size Reese Cups (smaller than normal ones), and stopped. Now drinking extra Water. I also made sure that I had NO other carbs all day, and I walked FOUR miles by 9 p.m.!!! Yay me!!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
