Is ok that I have bad days and only want to eat Cookies? I have haf this craving for 4days and I know old habbits are bad to break, I'm really trying I was doing for 4months without sweets but I had fall back. How do I get back on track?

I haven't had surgery but I've found that if I deny myself I always do bad long term. Maybe instead of NO sweets you do a sensible/small desert once every two weeks. Then phase to once every month, then eventually only at certain events.

I keep a couple of packets of Weight watchers 100 calorie choc chip mini Cookies handy just for days like that.Usually a packet like that is jus enough to satisfy the craving IF I EAT THEM SLOWLY.I have forgotten to slow down a few times and they were gone way too quickly to satisfy my craving.Now I enjoy them slowly!

Nabisco also makes the 100 cal packs of Cookies.< /p>

the only other thing I can suggest is to go on a carb cleansing diet. I know when I eat too many carbs I tend to start craving them. If I go back to high Protein and get past the 1st set of withdrawals I do better.

One of the perks of the sleeve is that it is SOOOOOOO easy to stick to my eating plan. If I get off track one day, it doesn't derail all my efforts like it did pre-sleeve. I also don't need as much of the food I am craving to feel satisfied. I will eat 3 bites of cheesecake and am happy!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
