These are my absolute favorite. I can't wait till I can have them again. I'm in the soft food phase. No solids for like 3 1/2 more weeks. My favs are blueberry pie or whatever and maple donut.

How many carbs?

Might vary a little from flavor to flavor. Optimum nutrition Cake Bites are incredible too. 20 G Protein, 5 g sugar (3 added), 25 carbs, and 240 cals for three cakes that could easily be one per snack. They're an amazing nearly guilt free dessert.

Ah I see-im not on solids yet but the carbs would probably turn my away. Seems like alot unless its being used as a full Meal Replacement but then again when i can eat idk if i will be up for losing a meal to the bar. I have seen some great reviews on the flavors though-tempting!

I only purchased 2 of these and was only able to eat 1/2 at a time so I used it as one of my Snacks for the day. Honestly I don't count carbs since I have given up all breads, Pasta, and rice.

My plan counts net carbs so once you subtract the Fiber and sugar alcohol it's only 3 net carbs

I don't really count carbs. It's counted on bariatric pal because I have it set on calorie max and Protein goals so it sortof makes up fat and carbs. My carbs basically come from fruit and other natural sources not simple carbs so eff tracking. I don't even really track fat that much because it's mostly dairy fat, which is good for you.

The 4th year med student said no, this is the time to only focus on loss and not long term health but screw that. I'm here to lose weight while building healthy habits. I want to lose but her 1 lb a day expectation can kiss my ass (even though I'm basically on track). About 19 lbs and it's 21 days tomorrow/today?. Time flies!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
