MochaKelly 74 Posted August 11, 2017 Guess who just had a piece of cake without wrecking my health?! My spouse and I discovered the low carb bakery while riding around two weeks ago. Two cakes come in the pack and I can only eat half of one. Sent from my XT1097 using BariatricPal mobile app 2 sheliss and YeaMe reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Berry78 4,261 Posted August 11, 2017 Well, no.. I just thought it was clever, actually. Do be careful eating a bunch at once in case the sugar alcohols don't agree with you (but, I see you already did go easy, so all will be well, I'm sure ). 2 soready17 and MochaKelly reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is like I am a new mother.lol I nibble. I REFUSE to stretch my pouch out trying to eat the way that I used to. Everything seems SO sweet or salty now, even my Vitamins. How have you managed the change in your palette? Sent from my XT1097 using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Berry78 4,261 Posted August 11, 2017 I agree about things being "too". For the most part I just cook everything for myself so I control the flavor. I avoid sweets, but at a birthday I'll have a couple bites of cake or ice cream. Don't really enjoy it, so it makes it easier to not have those cravings. Since I'm not eating processed food, I actually need to make sure I get enough salt. My tastebuds are accomodating this need so salted nuts are actually good. (Lunchmeat still tastes like garbage though..too salty!) I'm really enjoying my ability to taste food more fully... so good food is really good. But bad food is BAD. How the heck do people eat that stuff??? Lol! 1 MochaKelly reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How the heck do people eat that stuff??? Lol!I am afraid to eat nuts. What type of nuts did you try first. I know I probably won't try luncheon meat. The thought of the salt content is nauseating. True Story: I can honestly say that I have severed all ties with one of my oldest and dearest friends, Little Debbie snack Cakes. The sight and smell SEVERELY nauseates me. I couldn't believe it when it happened! We were just talking about them and it was like I could taste them !I began to dry heave initially, then splat!I lost my lunch. #RIPSwissCakeRollsAndOatmealPies [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] #TrashCanMemorialServicesSent from my XT1097 using BariatricPal mobile app 1 PepperCat reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Berry78 4,261 Posted August 11, 2017 I first tried nuts at 8 weeks postop. Cashews are very soft and don't have skins. Chewed them up very well, one at a time, no problem. I now eat all kinds, but limit it to 1oz a day (I weigh them out into little containers to grab and go). I weigh out Peanut Butter the same way, and love peanut butter on celery with a few raisins on top. 1 tavenok reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ssflbelle 829 Posted August 11, 2017 Watched a few of the reviews on their site and the people seemed to have enjoyed these cakes and rolls. A sampler pack isn't too bad price wise so I might try them. I had previously tried something similar. Can't remember the name of the company but they were horrible and went moldy within days of receiving them. Thanks for the link. 1 MochaKelly reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Celery is off because it is fibrous and can clog the pouch and all dried fruits are off because of the sugar content and I LOVE prunes.

Counting up the raisins.... According to the box, 40g of raisins contains 29g net carbs. I allow myself 15g of carbs from fruit each day, so I weigh out 20g of raisins, which happens to be 57 raisins (today). Here is a picture of 20g raisins and 1oz each of nuts/seeds. 1 MochaKelly reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
