I know, sounds weird right?? But do you know why I'm miserable? I ate dessert at our christmas/birthday dinner and although I ate only 4 spoons of mousse, it made me sooooooo sick! first real helping of dessert since the surgery and I swear I thought I was going to hurl, sweat, and pass out and the only issue was which was going to happen first.

A little walk around the restaurant cured me but I was so so so glad that my sleeve didn't love the sugar. Other things she hates: Bread, potatoes and dry chicken, all of which go thunk really hard. All else has been easily tolerated.

I know this won't always be true and at some point, if I keep "trying" my sleeve might adjust to the sugar but today, I'm thankful it didn't. Part of me kept hoping I'd really have a horrible reaction so I'd associate sugar with bad outcomes, and the rest of my brain didn't want to ruin my son's birthday lunch. Also, as a carb addict, I know it's not that simple. I wish we always felt bad if we did bad things, but if that were true, I wouldn't have needed the sleeve, right?

What does your sleeve hate?

I remember not being TOO far out from surgery and eating a nutter butter cookie and feeling SOOOO sick! I thought, yes! I can't tolerate sugar! Nope. Now I can gobble those suckers down. tehehe...

Want to know something sleeve healthy that meets my nutter butter craving? Syntrax peanut butter cookie shake with one tablespoon of real peanut butter. Soooo yummy and so nutter butter like, it's ridiculous.
