I would check with your surgeon. I was still on liquids at 3 weeks. Be careful with sugar free candy, take a look at the calories.

Check with your surgeon, but I eat sugar free candy a lot. It does have more calories, but with me it is cutting sugar down to 2g per entree that has allowed me to lose. I eat many sugar free products. I always thought eating too much fat was my problem, but to be truthful it is definetly the sugar. I have of course cut way back on my fat, but I think eating a piece or two of sugar free candy daily is not a big issue, at least with me!!!! Good luck!!!

I was told candies like crystal light sugar free hard candies were ok even during the liquid stage. Suck on it though, no crunching yet since you're still on liquids.
