Sweet tooth!

[Aribay1 198]

Pre op I had the biggest sweet tooth ever I mean I'm a baker for god sake!

So post op I was fine. Not that I'm 7 weeks out its coming back and I haven't been exactly ignoreing it. Any substitution ideas?

Thank you for asking this! I am about 11 weeks out and with all these holiday Cookies every where I go i am so nervous! I have had a nibble here and there and it is really making me nervous! Down 44 pounds and don't want to go back!! Thank you again for asking!!!

I find that when I have a chocolate craving that if I mix some plain Greek yogurt with some chocolate Protein Powder it satisfies my choc craving. It's worth a try. I use the Unjury brand of Protein powder so it dissolves and is lump free in the yogurt. Good luck, I know it's tough.

I'm a newbie but I took ricotta cheese mixed with stevia in a small casserole dish and baked it for about 25min @350 degrees. Refrigerated it till it set.....Then took fresh strawberries pureed them and poured it on top.... Mini Cheesecake Gastric Sleeve style

do you have the amounts you used?? Can I use splenda instead?? Sounds yummy!! I think this would make a nice Christmas dessert for me. I love my ricotta bake I make with spaghetti sauce and mozz cheese.

This sounds so gross yet so amazing yet still gross. Haha! Gotta try it because I'm caving in to much and I'm finally leaving the 222lb mark and reaching 216 but I'm between the two now.

Here is the whole recipe (it might be from eggface.com but I really don't remember?) When I make it I cut it in half and get four servings that work perfectly for me.

8oz Ricotta part skim

1/2 cup grated parmesan

1 large egg beaten

1 tsp Italian seasoning

1/2 marinara or spaghetti sauce

1/2 cup shredded mozzarella

mix ricotta, parmesan, beaten egg, seasonings together. Place in a over proof dis. Pour the marinara on top and then top with mozzarella cheese. Bake at 450 for about 20-25 mins.

With the ingredients I use, and for half the recipe these are the counts I get.

94 calories

7.25 grams of Protein

4 grams of sugar (this is because of the spaghetti sauce I use) My doc wants my sugar grams at 25 or less and I am always around 6-9 only for the day so I use the sauce I like!!

I take a frozen banana some natural no sugar Peanut Butter and coco powder and blend.. It's honest to god. Like ice cream!! I hated the Protein powder and Greek yogurt. But for my chip addiction I love Greek yogurt and dry ranch dressing packet and veggies.

I took 1/2 cup of skim milk ricotta cheese put it in the bowl with 1 envelope of sweetener - stevia, trivia splenda- it really doesn't matter. I creamed it all together with my mixer and placed mix in a 6 oz ramekin. Baked it cooled it and presto I had 14 grams of delicious protein! Oh and I also drained the ricotta first so it wouldn't be to mushy. Yummy
