I had surgery two months ago and I cant have baked goods parentally yet. And I'm going crazy I love chocolate and want it lol. Does anyone know what I can have that will satisfy me!! And that's not bad in nutrition!i need to get to of this sweet tooth, like Hershey kisses or something

The chocolate shakes are so chocolatly and sweet that it has taken my sweet tooth away and I am a carboholic.

If you have a sweet tooth, the very best advise I can offer you - kick it. Cold and permanently. It sounds harsh but it is true.

I am learning that I really, truly, will just have to exist without indulging carbs or sweets of any kind. I can't have really sweet stuff anyway, my tummy hates it - but I went into remission from type 2 diabeties in March and my pancreas and liver are functioning effortlessly - no spikes with OJ or wheat bread, or Peanut Butter - my limit is only on what I can eat without it making my stomach hurt.

With that said, and letting myself slip off the 5-year long almost carbless existence I had pre-sleeve/remission, it is a creeper, it will sneak up on you - if you don't clip it it is like what I imagine smoking to be to my sister - you go for sooo long, and go so well, and a nip here (puff there) and bam!

For me, given what I have been through, seeing my progress and knowing now I can still slip, I have made what I can say will a decision to live refined-sugar (refined 'oses') free.

atkins protein bars

Jello makes a sugar free double chocolate pudding that hits the spot for me. I believe it is 60 calories.

Perhaps chocolate calcium chews would work for you. These are between 5-15 calories each and also help you with calcium requirements (my doctor requires me to take 6 daily where each are 250 mg). I find both the chocolate and caramel flavors are yummy.

Is have those already and take them

The sleeve is a tool, not a magic wand. Head hunger is a challenge you will need to address without caving in to cravings. Show yourself some tough love. One option is to cut out sugar period. Another is to indulge, but only with low fat, sugar free options.

Then there is that other choice to just eat chocolate when you want to. But if you elect to do that then why bother with a sleeve? Just be obese.

You won't find many enablers here. You will find a lot of people going through the same thing and who will support your efforts towards better health.

Those taste ok but aren't low calorie and they also give some people gas and diarrhea, especially if they eat several.

Atkins protein bars taste good. They have different flavors. One even taste like a baby ruth candy bar. You are also getting protein with these little bars. If I take that sweet urge which has only been a couple of times I grab one of these. I bought them for the purpose of extra protein. I found they kill the sweet urge, and give the extra protein I need plus one small bar makes me extremely full for hours alot of times I cant finish a complete bar.

I do the no surgery added fudgesicles. Low calories, and they taste amazing ( to me anyway) but I do have a sleeve of steel... So idk how it will o for you, but give it a try!
