Sweet cravings - vitamins for.

[slimmy120 2]

I have been at goal now for months, but getting sweet cravings, and yep is that time of month. A friend told me with lapband it is common to have sweet cravings when you get to goal, and you can take some type of Vitamin for it, is it allowed? i am not taking any Vitamins at all, and had blood test the other day, and everything is great.:blushing:

I've honestly never ever heard of a Vitamin to control a craving for sweets and that isn't just a "lap band" problem, either. I wish there were such a thing! However I was told I would have to take a good multi vitamin for the rest of my life (even people without a band are often advised to take a good multi...to be safe) So while Vitamins don't really work for "sweet" cravings (or else diabetics and many many overweight people would be taking them already!) a good multi is a good idea.

I have had a sweet tooth my whole life! I haven't heard of a Vitamin but I indulge every day. I have either a 100 calorie pack of m&m's or 100 calorie pack of swedish fish. I figure what the heck.. this isn't a diet.

I know what you are talking about. There was a post about this about 2 weeks ago. I will see if I can find it for you.

Have a great day!

I think it might be chromium picolinate.

I'm not sure if it's a Vitamin, but you can certainly get it from most health food stores in the UK and there's tons of information about it on the web.
