mommy319 31 Posted October 15, 2015 No honey post op. At least not while you are trying to lose weight. Your body may not even be able to handle it. Honey is on the list of things to avoid along with sugar and candy.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dub 9,922 Posted October 15, 2015 Have you tried Stevia? I've found the packets of this are pretty decent in coffee & tea. There seems to be less aftertaste, too. It's certainly more pricey than generic Splenda or NutraSweet but is works well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BLERDgirl 6,417 Posted October 15, 2015 I eat raw honey in moderation. I am allergic to stevia and most artificial sweeteners. It hasn't interfered with my weight loss in the least. And it was never on my list of do not eat foods. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elode 8,093 Posted October 15, 2015 I LOVE creamed honey!! I bought some organic creamed honey while I was in Colorado and yesterday I remembered it! I wanted something sweet so I dipped my little spoon in and had maybe 1/2 teaspoon. It did the trick as far as fixing my sweet tooth. I'm still alive and I'm not apologizing for it!!!!

It's certainly more pricey than generic Splenda or NutraSweet but is works well. I've honestly only ever had Splenda as an adult. I remember trying equal and sweet and low when I was younger, but I just don't like how unnatural they taste and I can't imagine it's doing less harm then actual sugar...but who knows Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've never heard of that. I do buy local honey here in NorCal, because my daughter likes it with tea and my husband prefers honey in his coffee. I'll have to look for that. I honestly only have the need/want for a touch of sweet in my coffee and tea. But even at that with my coffee I've been managing perfect by adding Protein to it bc it gives it just that touch of sweetness I wanted Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Inner Surfer Girl 12,015 Posted October 15, 2015 Creamed honey might also be labelled whipped. I don't add sweeteners to food as a general rule, but the few times I do, I prefer honey or a bit of brown sugar, or even more rarely a tad of cane sugar. The only thing my surgeon told me to completely avoid is high fructose corn Syrup.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
