A co-worker brought in delicious looking, creme filled cupcakes for Halloween. I caved in and ate one. It did taste extremely good, but now I feel sluggish, full, and have a yucky overly sweet taste in my mouth. I do not miss this feeling at all. No wonder why I always felt sluggish before. I would have polished off at least 2 of them before. Sugar is the devil....lol. All I have to do is remember this feeling, and I should be good for the next time I am tempted. Yuck

tell me about it. We had hot cocoa & chocolate mini muffins in the office today and i haven't had such a sugary drink in ages...i have a raging headache right now and I'm crashing. Yep. don't miss this feeling one little bit.

I have never had the misfortune of experiencing that. I can eat sweet stuff and still feel fine.

The only exception was after my daughters Deb which was alcohol free so we had to drink cordial, woke up the next morning with a headache worse than a hangover.

Ew...sugar makes me feel really bad too just like a sick headache hangover.(shudder!!!).Yep,it is definitely of the Devil.LOL

I was just telling my husband that I have not had a headache, except for day 2 on pre op liquids, and the day after surgery. I am now 16 days out and have not had a headache. I agree that sugar is the devil and we are smart to steer clear of it. I think that so much of my sluggishness and headaches were definitely related to the sugar/ carb loading that I was doing pre band. So glad to be banded and gaining insights from all the support at this site. Maybe some people can handle sugar, but I know that's not me.
