Sugar Free

Ok so I am 3.5weeks out and yesterday my family who is visiting me, we were out and about in town. I was craving chocolate. Something sweet. So bad me I ordered a sugar free peanut butter cup. I had the smallest bite from the chocolate but ate the peanut butter from the inside. Was this ok? Or did I just mess up everything??

Hmm I didn't know we could eat sugar free fudgesicles hmmm gonna go but some

I wouldn't at 3.5 weeks out. I was barely on pureed foods. BTW I just ate yogurt, SF pudding, soups, because the thought of pureed foods made me want to barf. However, I had gone that far with the procedure, I didn't want to risk it. The negative things that could happen is sliming, hot flashes, throwing up, or upset stomach. ;)

I had suger free dark dove chocolate from target around 1 month post op. I only had one a day though because it's full of fat calories. Sugar free pudding, pops, chocolate- we should still check the nutritional facts. Hope I helped!

I have an occasional little piece of dark chocolate - NOT SF. I'm not a bypass patient so I can do a bit of sugar on occasion. I will choose SF where it doesn't make a taste difference. Gelatin, puddings and flavored syrups are SF.

I enjoy HEALTHY INDULGENCE CALCIUM CITRATE 500mg every day. They taste just like dark chocolate. Love them!!!

Its probably not the worst thing you could have done... but I find when I give myself an inch, it leads to a mile... let your stomach rest. Soon enough you can have some treats. I had sugar free chocolate pudding with a spoon full of peanut butter, or PB2, or almond/flax butter to get my Reeses fix as soon as it was ok with the Doc.... probably around 3-4 weeks... I still try to stay away from sugar alcohols too... they can cause gas and stomach upset... who needs that!
