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've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
