Why am I craving chocolate every day?!?!



Recommended Posts

I should put a disclaimer on here about those. For weight loss and good nutrition, those mini warm delights should NOT be eaten on a regular basis. But they're excellent for TOM cravings.

I also removed the picture as I decided that was just cruel.... SORRY!

i was just joking..i watch tv and there is way more of it on there. i thought your picture was an excellent way of showing us what you are talking about...i'm still on the lookout for those things.. i want one.

I tried the Big Train low carb hot cocoa last night and it is soooo GOOD! Too bad it has 3 grams of fat for a cup of hot cocoa. I guess for it to taste good it has to have carbs or fat one. LOL

I thought that there was somehting wrong with me. I have always liked chocolate...but nothing like since being banded. There are certain chocolate items that I have been eating that in the past never appealed to me.

I also take Flintstones chewables. Mine are w/Iron. I don't think that the Vitamins are the catalyst for me. The PA in my surgeons office said that the sweet cravings may be an indication that I am not drinking enough Water.

After reading this post and realizing that I am not alone, I wonder if you are drinking enough Water. Truthfully, I have not been. Let's see if increased water intake will take care of the chocolate cravings.

Okay, fess up you guys. How many (besides me) have gotten triple their Calcium intake by eating those chocolate Chewy Calium things? Ohhh, they are sooo good.

I justify it by saying I didn't take Calcium yesterday so I need double the Chocolate... or Calcium chewys today. Right?

GUILTY! :faint:How did you know?

So you guys are able to eat the calcium chews without a problem? I've been scared to try any sticky type stuff since I had an issue with jelly Beans awhile back. I will try the chews and see if that helps. The Calcium cant hurt and those lemon chewable calcium tablets I have been taking are not very good.

I take the Viactiv chews, and I don't have a problem with them, but my band isn't very tight right now. But if you chew and chew and chew them, I doubt they'd give you trouble, and you'd get to enjoy them a little longer! :huggie:

      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.
