Never heard of it , some would say yes some would say no, the only thing I will say is , is it allowed on your plan?

Only 2 grams of Protein for three whopping Cookies?

These cookies would be an utter waste of space in your sleeve. When you look at the nutritional facts, they're just another empty calorie snack.

Just stick to cookies 'n cream flavored Protein Bars. You'll satisfy your craving for a cookie while actually feeding some protein to your body.

When I get a sweet tooth, I eat Halo Top ice cream (240 calories and 24 grams of protein per pint). The Enlightened brand ice cream is also good.

I would stay away from them. They hold no nutritional value. I know all plans are different, but I have always been under the impression that we should pay more attention to Protein content, carb content and calorie content rather than sugar. Of course low sugar is important, but I wouldn’t think it would be at the top of the list.

I like Quest protein bars when I’m craving a cookie type snack. Also, if you haven’t explored Pinterest for recipes, you definitely should. There are so many really great high protein, low carb, low sugar recipes there for pretty much any kind of food you could ever want. If you’re craving sweets, they have a TON of recipes.

Sometimes we treat ourselves and that’s ok but I think it’s important to also do your best to incorporate positive things into your treats (such as high protein).


As of October 12, 2017, I am 4 months post op and have lost 100 pounds. I have reached my goal weight and could not be more ecstatic!

Mmmm cookies...

Cookies have always been my favorite sweet. I like them better than cake or ice cream, so guess what I'm getting for my birthday?

Probably a catastrophy, but I'll try to make some Peanut Butter cookies with about 1/4 the sugar.. cuz sweets are just too dang SWEET!

Gee, I was tasting apples yesterday. Who the heck put so much sweet into an apple? I'm all looking for the tart cooking ones now. But not too tart. Bland apples.. anyone know of the blandest type of apple?

I do the sugar free cookies. My doc said it was ok. I only allow myself the serving size when I want a treat. It has helped me tremendously bc I will not deprive myself of everything. It just doesn't work for me. I do not eat anything that has regular sugar such as cakes or pies. If I do decide, I will take one bite only.
This surgery for me was about control. I don't over due or over eat like I used to and for that I am very happy.
I already do not eat Pasta, pizza or bread. But one cookie isn't going to derail me and I am with not eating the whole bag.
We have to find what works for each of us.
A lifetime of denial of everything is not living.

I wish I could be that way. I can’t even have that stuff in the house because I WILL eat it. All of it. I’ve made that mistake and it’s a really awful feeling. I guess I just have poor control when it comes to food. So I just have to stay away. But, I do enjoy the Protein brownie recipes and things like that. I like to make the one serving size brownies in a mug. That won’t I won’t eat too much.

      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.

        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.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
