April 3, 201214 yr I just bought a hershey choc bar and ate it. It took care of that craving. Just do not buy the jumbo pack. You can not win the battle without treating yourself every now and then. This is not like "Oh I can never have one of those now that I have had surgery."
April 3, 201214 yr It depends on how far out you are. If you are far enough to eat it, then eat it. A small piece of dove would fix that and make you feel better. I got the sleeve so I wouldn't have to diet forever. If you are still on mushies/puree or liquids grab a pudding or popsicle. Or drink a protein shake!
April 3, 201214 yr Sugar free chocolate pudding is my go to or a small piece of dark chocolate. 1 small piece will help with the craving usually for me.
April 3, 201214 yr Chocolate is suppose to have some healthy attributes to it. However, this has sugar and sugar is addictive. Just learned this from 60 minutes so I am trying to avoid sugar. Anyways, try a piece of fruit for the sweetness.
April 3, 201214 yr I have 3 dark chocolate, chocolate chips. I use ghiradelli chips and let them melt in my mouth. Yummy. But I limit it to once a week. Also there is a tcby frozen fudge pop that is good w 80 calories.
April 3, 201214 yr The other day, I did something B. A. D.!! I had a bit of a chocolate craving, so I was going to get one of those tiny Lindor truffle balls, but I couldn't find them, so I got a Cadbury chocolate egg. I thought I'd put my sleeve to the test. Just see where I am with this kind of thing. (risky, I know...) So, I nibbled on it for about five minutes. Finally choked it all down. Nothing. Nada. Zero. I felt FINE. (DARN IT) BUT......It tasted weird!! It did not taste like I remember chocolate tasting. There was a day I could have knocked back about 5 of those. That one did the trick for sure. I don't think I will bother again for a long time. Anyway...I don't think it killed me. It just won't be a habit. Next time I'll go for the Protein bar!
What should I turn to....I really want chocolate???!!!!!!!
