You can have anything you want as long as you are willing to "pay" for it

I'm still pre-op but just ate one of my pre-diet Snacks which is a large chocolate chip cookie from my Drs office. It's 165 cal and 14 g of Protein for the 1 cookie.

I don't know if that's something that would work for you at your stage.

I see them on Nashuanutrition website for 11.99/box of 7.

They are 9.50/box where I get them.

They are not quite like I would make from stratch but really not bad.

Total carb is 14g/dietary Fiber 1g/sugars 5g

Sure you can, if you are cleared for all foods. Just don't make it a habit. Treats are fine in moderation. There are also lots of good sugar free things. Atkins makes a line of treats that are low carb, low sugar, and surprisingly good.

I am 1 year out, 120 gone, 10 more to goal. I eat a small slice of sugar free pie whenever this urge overcomes me. Only when someone brings it into my home, though or when at a restaurant. I will not buy or make one for fear of all too real temptation when I have a whole pie in front of me!! And even if I know it would make me sick if I overindulgded, I may find myself eating slivers over time and finish the whole pie by myself....not happening. I must always be one step away from my food addiction.

But, with all that being said, I love sugar free fruit pie. Don't care about Cookies or cake, though.

Good luck

There's also a ton of Healthier baked good recipes online that have added Protien. I made some really yummy Cookies with pumpkin and chocolate chips in it. The great thing is it only made 8 cookies so my family all hd one and took one for a snack the next day so they where not hanging around tempting me to have more than 1. Good luck

My friend has a great low/no carb baked good recipe page on Facebook. I love her recipes. And she also adds Protein. Search for: Sinless Bites WLS/Diabetic friendly Yummies.

I say go for it...but just a little bit! I have a piece of dove dark chocolate every day, sometimes two. It keeps my cravings at bay and feels like a small, individually packaged indulgence. I also have Fiber one chocolate chip Cookies sometimes. 90cals and 5 g fiber with a little Protein. Also I get kashi granola bars and will have one on days I haven't had many carbs.

But mainly if I want something sweet I have something sweet, preferably something small or when out sharing with friends. And I always log it. I think problems really start when you 'lie' to yourself and don't record every drop. But that's just me and recording food doesn't feel like a diet anymore...just a way of life.

I load up on the Kellogg fiber plus caramel coconut fudge bars when I can find them. They might just be a fancy candy bar but they beat eating a box of Cookies or a cupcake and they hit the sweet tooth and make u feel full too. They taste like the girls scout Samoa cookies :)

Check out Bariatric Foodie (google it). It's a WLS cooking blog. She has a recipe index with lots of low carb Desserts, some with lots of Protein even. I've made a few of hers and they are great! I've also found good ones on Pinterest. And I occasionally have sugar free candy or Cookies. I have a sweet tooth too!

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
