also made an angel food cake that I only put crushed pineapple in its own juice. didnt like it.;

got both recipies from pinterest.

Hey, did you use reduced sugar BBQ Sauce? Do you have issues with sugar? I haven't even tried it.

Actually no. I made it with sweet baby rays sauce. Had to cook for hubby. So i really didnt care about sugar in the sauce, i didnt eat much at all. Although hubs ate all the ribs so no seconds here lol

Stupid question here. With the tiny amount we eat, is buying sugar free ketchup, BBQ Sauce, and other Condiments necessary? Or is the regular stuff ok?

Dorian - personally I think it depends on your pouch and tastes. I have found that stuff with regular sugar and not reduced is waaaaayyyy to sweet for me. I used to eat Cheerios with a heap of sugar added to it- today I had a bowl with no sugar added and it was to sweet for me to eat. Same with regular ketchup.

Actually i dont worry about sugar free anymore even tho i am a diabetic. Being sugar free is not always good. It is replaced with other chemicals. I just do stuff in moderation and yes its all about taste and texture. And if the pouch rejects it

Omg I totally agree with you. I wouldn't have anything sugar free before because its so bad with all the chemicals. Now I'm completely dependent on sugar free so I am often eating Popsicles or Jello or drinks with aspartame or sucralose. I am sure that cannot be good for my health. Of course neither is being obese. I feel so conflicted!

You do what's right for you, I don't touch. the stuff and never will...ps sucralose is not the bad one Aspartame and Asculefame are poison. Why would you go through this type surgery and then eat poison? Did you know that there are 92 side effects of Aspartame one is death?

Are you conflicted about that? Sorry I'm sure i will either piss you off or someone else that reads it. I am politically direct not politically correct.. I just don't understand

My question is similar....a regular Popsicle has 7 carbs. That doesn't seem too high. Can I have a regular Popsicle? I hate the taste of the sugar free stuff!

Depends on what your carb count is. I'm not allowed over seven, some are 10 and some are even lower. What does your Nut say?

Carb counts are also deceptive. Are they straight sugar or corn Syrup? Because milk or fruit sugars often process differently for people. Sugar or corn syrup make me dump. Fruit and milk don't.

Plus your regular popsicle is empty calories. No nutrition, where milk and fruit add Vitamins and minerals to your body.

      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... :(
