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.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
