Starbucks



Recommended Posts

Starbucks has a little secret! Most of their shops have a size called "short", so you can cut the cals and carbs of your latte by having the smaller size. The tall is often too much for me anyway!

Eh' date=' i don't have an issue with artificial sweetners. I don't consume them a lot anyways.[/quote']

Now that I have had the sleeve my intake of Splenda, aspertine, & all fake sugars has increased because that is what the doctors food plan is. I am eating about 4 sugar free popcycles a day. Ummmm, the rest of my food at this point is OK. How long has it been since u were sleeved? When did your stomach handle regular sugar? Thanks for your help & your previous post.

Iced coffee recipe:

Take 4 ounces coffee grinds to 2 1/2 cups cold Water , soak grinds 12-15 hours and refrigerate for up to a week. Strain the coffee grinds with a cheesecloth or strainer and napkin into a pitcher. Then for a Meal Replacement a take one cup skim milk, one cup iced coffee, my liquid stevia in vanilla or chocolate flavor and my Protein powder and pour it over ice . It's so yummy and so much cheaper than buying coffee each day ;)

I take my premier chocolate Protein shake and have a shot or two added along with ice. It's a substitute for a mocha that I can tolerate and gets me closer to my Protein goals. Very occasionally I get a tall fat free latte - and love it! I (sadly) count carbs, so milk isn't something I have very often.

Bariatric Advantage now has a ProJoe iced latte bottled drink. 20g proetin, 120 cal, 5g carbs, and 3g sugar. They have mocha, vanilla, and chai. Not on their website yet, but you can call them to order and they give free shipping on it. 12 in a case and is actually cheaper than going to Starbucks everyday and getting a tall skinny iced latte! Love them!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
