Christmas Cookies



Recommended Posts

I"m just over 4 months out and haven't had any regrets but I am really missing sweets :( With Xmas time here I miss making Cookies and eating them! What do you guys do for the cravings? Fudgsicles are just not the same.

If you are sure you can avoid tasting temptations while baking, but want the fun of it, bake Cookies and take them to seniors or people that live alone or play Secret Santa for neighbors.

I'm interested in sugar free baking! Would love any of you sweet ladies to share any recipes. I use Splenda for some things but not very creative putting stuff together. I am gonna have to break down and bake some Cookies for my son. He doesn't get it that mama has to be careful with goodies and honestly it's not his place to have to or do without because of my food addiction. He's very use to every year we do cookies and we also take them to base for the airmen in the dorms that can't go home. Guess that's gonna be the extent of my baking this year. He's 10 so I'm trying to keep his traditions alive cause I know not

A lot longer he's gonna wanna hang with mama in the kitchen.

Hi. I recently was given all of my Dad's diabetic cookbooks from my Mom and there are a TON of yummy things in there. Better Homes and Gardens has a diabetic cookbook with great sweet treats in there. I just had sf chocolate pudding since my surgery about 3 1/2 weeks ago and it was heaven - for all of 4 or 5 spoonfuls!

I will take a look and post a recipe or two when I get a chance!!

I go on the chocolate Covered Katie blog. She's a vegan but she has different ways to make treats with different flours and sugars. I've made a few things and they were really good. I want to try the chocolate chip cookie dough dip. Yum!

      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.
