Just wanted to hear from my fellow december sleevers and see how you were doing. I want to make sure im on the right track! I had my surgery on dec 14th. I weighed 312 and i am now down to 250...62 lbs! I am having a hard time finding things to snack on, what are your go to snacks??

Happy day for you! I was sleeved on Dec. 17. I weighed 276 and now I'm 245. Sweets are my downfall and I still struggle with cravings almost daily. The better I do with Protein and lots of Water, the easier it is however.

Lately my Snacks have been apples (sometimes with a little peanut butter), these homemade flax and cheese crackers that are low carb, or my pre mixed costco Protein shakes.

I've found that if I have nuts, candy, chips, crackers, etc in the house at all - my cravings for them intensify and are all but impossible to resist at a certain point. I have not binged yet per se, but I have had a few days where I "grazed", which is a very very old and ingrained habit for me.

The first step is naming it!!

Good work you!

Snacks for me in the weight loss phase were usually:

• cottage cheese
• light greek yogurt
• string cheese
• "meat" sticks (like beef sticks, but with turkey or other lean meats)
• Protein bars (be VERY careful about the nutrition if you go this route)
• peanuts (not until 3 months post-op)

Finally broke my stall, I'm doing ok. I eat sugar free Jello and pudding once a day, beef Jerky (natural), and meat. I'm not allowed any grains etc. I'm not going to lie, I am a bit bored.

String cheese, hummus and carrots, protein shake or bar. Starting to get bored too so following this topic.

I was sleeved dec 14th as well sw 243 cw 214...i like to try different things my NUT gave me a printed out list of all the things i could eat vs what to try n stay away from so i made a book out of it...cucumbers and lite dressing of your choice, pepperoni popped in microwave for seconds th make crispy, pickles with lunch meat wrapped around it theres so many other things u could try...sometimes i even just eat a piece of fruit or veggie like celery and peanut butter or carrots

I was sleeved Dec 29th sw 284 sw 245.2 my Snacks are Protein based mainly cheese, turkey, protein shakes, hummus, edamame and chicken. I usually eat about every 3-4 hours! I bought some Quest bars but haven't tried it!

I was sleeved on Dec. 3 sw 381, cw 333. My Snacks are ricotta cheese with a tiny bit of maple syrup for sweetness, 1/2 a think thin high Protein bar, Quest chips, babybel light cheese, cauliflower, mushrooms and or cucumber dipped in light dressing, turkey snack sticks like Nick's Sticks or an Epic Bar.

I have some walnuts/peanuts/sunflower seeds around for desperate snacking. When I'm craving sweets I have some power crunch bars in chocolate mint. otherwise I have lunch meat as a snack. I got some really thin sliced pricey lunch meats and I eat two slices, normally wrapped around a little piece of cheese.

I did get some grapes last week and put them in the freezer for a while so they were really hard and that was the best treat.
