@@BLERDgirl I actually read that and forgive me I cannot remember who it was from but I have had a spoon full of natural Peanut Butter and I add a small drizzle of creamed Colorado honey to it. I do like that!

I am in maintenance and when I am craving something sweet I occasionally eat it. I just make sure to log it to account for the calories/carbs. Or sometimes I can plan ahead so my treat doesn't wreck my totals for the day.

Of course if I eat sweets too frequently the cravings start and I have a few rough days until they are gone. It's a balancing act. So far I have been able to occasionally indulge and keep my weight the same.

At least with our sleeve we get full fast so with a cupcake half usually works for me. Unfortunately, the Krispie Kreme doughnuts I can eat a whole one :(

Ouch! I dont have much of a sweet tooth, but those homemade cupcakes look pretty tempting and yummy. I would brush my teeth and then stay away from the kitchen, lol.

With you being at goal weight, you could probably savor part of a cupcake or donut and be fine! Skinny people have treats. I have read enough of your posts to know it wouldn't send you over the edge : )

I just want to thank you all for your suggestions and help through this hardship I'm having. No joke! We all know this isn't easy and if it is for you God bless. I have a lot of eyes on me so to speak and I don't want to let them down but more than that I don't any to let ME down. There are times in your life when you will be called "selfish" well I am, I will own that when it comes to this body and my health for once in my life I will be selfish and I won't fell sorry for it!! You guys are a true blessing and I am now and forever thankful for each and every one of you!

      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... :(
