Thanks for responding. I was thinking about sf fudicles they aren't bad I think I will keep them on hand if I want something sweet.

I don't eat a lot of the SF stuff (all those ethyl...aren't great for you)' date=' but I'm a chocoholic, so I always have the individually wrapped SF Russell Stover's chocolates in the house. All kinds of insides; peanut butter, carmel, toffee, etc. and they come in dark chocolate as well. I have one most nights after dinner and it gives me a treat to look forward to all day. For me I can't make anything completely off limits or eventually I'm doomed for failure. If I know I'm allowed and I'll be able to have it soon, then I'm good. If you eat more than a little of any of these with the sugar alcohols you'll pay the price...gas and diarrhea (that helps me keep it to one LOL). SF fudcicles & popsicles help me out too.

I also agree with the 'the more you have the more you want'. Try cutting sugars out completely for a few days and then see how it goes.[/quote']

thanks everyone for the feed back it is greatly appreciated. I made it through today with out any sweets here's to another day of no sweets.

What do you do when you craves sweets! I never was big on sweets before my surgery I would have them now and then but it didn't bother me. Now since I had surgery it seems like every time (for the last 2 months) I eat I want something sweet. I need help with this my weight loss has been at a stand still and I believe it's because of this. Please let me know if there are other things you can eat to take this away. Thanks so much in advance!!!!!:huh2:

Congrats you are looking good keep up the good work.

You go girl that is great keep up the good work.

I'm so excited I got my surgery date 12/22 and I can't wait. It's been a long road and I'm so happy and ready for this change. I will be getting the realize band so if there are anymore people out there with the realize band please feel free to leave me a message letting me know how it is working for you. Thanks again!!!!:mad2:
