Craving something sweet



Recommended Posts

I tried this a few weeks ago and loved it! I did it crustless and added a few nuts and SF chocolate chips... you might wanna leave it plain at 4 weeks but it would be good for the pureed/mushy phase.

Won't be sweet if you eat it plain (Ricotta). It reminds me of cottage cheese' date=' only dryer. How bout plain or vanilla greek yogurt, mix in Tblsp. of lowfat/low sugar Peanut Butter then swirl in SF Jelly of your choice and viola! PB + J![/quote']

Well, that's genius.

If you are craving sweet, melt a piece of chocolate in your mouth, dark chocolate is better. But don't deprive yourself to that's all you think about. Just have it but don't make a habit

I mix a 6 oz plain Greek yogurt with two tablespoons of fat free/sugar free Jello pudding mix (the powder) and then add in a couple packs of Splenda, and it tastes just like cheesecake!

You may not be able to have this yet but I bought some chocolate Protein bars from Bariatric Choice, they taste just like a Nestlé crunch bar and they have 160 calories, 6 carbs, and 10 grams of Protein, I don't eat them every day but when I crave chocolate it hits the spot!

Nonfat/sugar free pudding (there are many flavors available), plus a scoop of Protein Powder in the mix when you make it... I have some cheesecake flavored ones in the fridge, which I added a scoop of chocolate Protein powder to the mix. Gets your protein in and tastes good.

sugar free jams are very sweet if you are looking for that sweet to be satisfied. Careful with the ones with any seeds in them. Add it to yogurt or cottage cheese, very satisfying.

Trust me, at this stage if you eat more than a bite or two of anything with sugar you will probably be miserable. There are a lot of good sugar free options, keep trying until you find the right one. Good luck, and don't give in. You can do this!

Sugar Free Chocolate puddings have saved my life since surgery. I have one every night as my desert. dinner is so tiny and we eat early so I need something filling and with Protein before bed. At 3 months post op, I add finely chopped almonds for crunch and my sleeve tolerates it well.

I sometimes go out and get sugar free fat free French vanilla Froyo with fresh strawberries but I am 12 weeks idk how far out you are but you may need to skip strawberries. There are 70 cal in 8 oz at the place I go and it really doesn't have that weird"sugar free" taste as some things do :)

      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? 🤷‍♀️
