Hi OP, can you share some info and stats please so we can target our replies? Are you pre or post op? What's your surgery? Etc.

Sugar is the devil as far as I'm concerned these days. Yes there are (limited) times when I invite the devil in - Easter most recently - but as a general rule I try to avoid both sugar and sugar substitutes as much as I can. They are what made me obese in the first place.

Whole foods are your friends and always will be. Protein, veg, fruit. Carbs once you have space or are at your goal weight.

@Spinoza I am giggling that you invited the devil for Easter.

I agree that I avoid sugar substitutes, and the amount of real sugar I allow myself at this point is minimal. But I do have two treats I look forward to every day. I really love my cherry flavored calcium chews, and even better, I splurged on the ProCare chocolate Calcium and have one every evening after dinner. It's a piece of dark chocolate, but it's also my calcium supplement, and it's delicious.

one of my favorite Desserts is to get some vanilla Greek yogurt (Chobani makes a 60 calorie one - and Light and Fit aren't much more than that), stir in some unsweetened cocoa powder, and then add a dollop of sugar free Cool Whip and a few raspberries.

i agree with catwoman7. i get Chobani zero vanilla yogurt, chop up some strawberries, and add blueberries and that is like a delicious dessert. I occasionally will add some sugar free hersey chocolate chips with strawberries to my yogurt. Yum!

during weight loss phase and for a several months after reaching goal, i limited the amount of sugar that i ingested as i was a really, REALLY, REALLLLY bad dumper. what little sugar or Desserts i ate where almost always within my calorie gosls. as the years progressed, i found i was able to eat more sugar and have eaten it accordingly.

nowadays, i'm down with whatever sugar type food you put in front of me, but i generally only have a single bite to taste if it looks appealing (2 or 3 if its deemed delicious lol).

i don't know what stage of the whole process you are, but5 generally (i'm 5+ years out), my go to sweet stuff are things that are also savory...like glazed/candied meat or fish, yogurts/cottage cheese bowls. mind you i still love me a good cookie or pie or cake, but i can't (wont?) eat large amounts of them...basically just a taste/bite.

I like to eat cottage cheese. The cottage cheese I eat is Good Culture. I put some berries on my cottage cheese to make it a sugary Protein snack.

[Rose perez 19]

That is such a great idea!, also that is my favorite cottage cheese brand too, it taste different then other brands !!

Idk if anyone has said this but I eat cottage cheese with the PB2 Protein Powder little milk and I use a little equal to sweeten it up some. You can use whatever you like to sweeten it up but this really is amazing.
