Has anyone ever cheated? If so what did u try that u weren't suppose to have?

Oye ... dangerous topic ...

chocolate. Did fine until Halloween came around. Total slider food.

DANGER!!!! STAY AWAY!!!!

My surgeon warned me away from caffeine, but I have it anyway :-x I get why they discourage it (it's a diuretic and dehydrates you when it's hard enough getting liquids in anyway) but I don't have a problem staying hydrated and without coffee I would have to be committed!

Yes! Deep fried red snapper with hush puppies. I got full quick but no side-effects.

Chocolate, I have a couple of Hershey Kisses 3 or 4 x's a week. I had this surgery so I wouldn't have to give up on everything and compared on how I used to eat chocolate before surgery I'm doing GREAT! Isn't that why we all had this surgery so we still "on occasion" get to have a little of what we want? Except Brownies I can't touch them yet, I'm still too weak, Aww Man I want a Brownie, Damn I shouldn't have went there ...LOL

LOL. I've been craving brownies for over a week. I even bought a box thinking I would make them in the little tiny cupcake pans, but then I thought that would be too much temptation. If they are little, I would probably eat more of them. So I figured I'd just make them in a regular pan. But I havent worked up the nerve yet. It was TOM last week so I think thats why I was literally DYING from want. This week not so much so they're still in the cupboard

I got you beat....My daughter started Pastry school last January and she brings her work HOME...Dangit!! Truthfully most of the time it doesn't bother me (Thank God) but every once in a while I am so tempted to mug her at the friggin door! Oh crap lost my composure there for a sec, Sorry.. LOL

We are all in this together right MKbalimath! So we shall overcome! (I am so damn preachy) Ha-Ha!

The first two week post op I was "detoxing" badly I wanted to eat everything but I coudn't cause my tummy was like "Hell No" (excuse the french) but after that first two weeks that went away and my taste have change tremendously, I have no taste for carbs like rice, potatoes, Pasta etc. (I wish I could say that about chocolate but you can't have everything, huh) So hang in there you'll see the changes really soon!

I had started eating 3 mini hersey bar's and found out my A1C went from 6.0 to 6.3. So had to quit. It is addicting!

Uh Oh, Please, I have to ask "What is a A1C" cause I eat a couple of hershey kisses a few times a week and I really don't want to quit that, its all I got right now..LOL

Last night I went to the movies and the only thing open was maccas

So I a 10 pack of chicken mcbites (don't know if USA has them, they are about 1/4 a size of a nugget.

Took me a good 45 mins & had no problems!

Yep we're all in this together! The good thing about this sleeve though is that in time, when we've got our sh** together, we'll be able to eat anything in moderation. For now though, I'm TRYING to learn better eating habits. Today has been a VERY hard day though. I'm going to the gym and need to at least burn 600 calories now :/

Very, Very True!

I have pretty much got the good eating habits down (I think) first Protein then Veggies (usually broccoli with a lil cheese) I have not wanted anything else (carbs) since before surgery, I have no taste for it. The one problem I do get it the "Grazing" thing going on I have been noticing that I will eat a little but all day long, its' weird, nothing thats not healthy, you know protein and stuff or icees, my stomach loves ice cold anything. I hope this urge stops soon.

The A1C test measures your average blood glucose control for the past 2 to 3 months.

The A1c test is a way of monitoring how well your blood sugar levels were controlled over a given period of time. The lower the score, the more your diet, exercise and insulin or oral medications prevented instances of high sugars.

Even though reducing our weight and exercising reduces our risk for diabetes, there is still a chance of developing diabetes. The A1C is a test that lets you see how well your diet and food maintenance is holding up over time. Testing your finger daily only gives you your sugar levels, testing your A1C tells you how well things are controlled and working together.
