Indulgences - random question

Have you eaten chips post op? I'm not talkin' veggie chips or banana chips, I'm talkin' frito hot cheeto dorito chips!

Like I said just curious to know yes or no!

Yep - I have 5 or 6 (doritos) on occasion, I don't want to get too filled up on that kind of stuff so I save it for if I am REALLY needing something with some crunch and I can't shake it with a cucumber or other vegetable. I don't keep it in the house though, I go to the store and by a small snack bag - that lasts me about 2 or 3 crunch cravings.

 yup.  i miss the hot cheetos! i've definitely had a few here and there..not encouraging it just telling the truth! 

You are prob right about not admitting! I actually have not had one chip. I will however have a "fork full" of some really decadent homemade treat, if I want to. I pass more often than not, but there have been two instances that I would not pass up. I do stop at a taste though.. I'm not a triggery person with sweets though.. now a bag of salt & vinegar Lay's.. may they never enter my house.

Grr I cant get the hang of using this site on my phone!



Lol Jo - yeah although I know most people wont admit I cannot understand why it is SO bad to have a taste, or 5 or 6 chips once in awhile ... (please don't start with the berating vets) I understand how this is a lifetime change & choice!

I have a question.  My surgery is scheduled for the end of September.  I too understand the lifetime change and choice thing, but....are we never supposed to have things like chips, cheetos, etc. again?  I  thought that eventually, somewhere down the line, we could eat anything as long as it was just a little bit as opposed to eating the whole bag which got us into this mess in the first place.  Am I wrong?

You will get mixed answers on this one. I didn't eat junk food, or eat many carbs in my losing stage.

Once I got to maintenance, I chose a life of moderation. You can read my reply to the original topic below.

Not yet but only out....if  I eat carbs, it will be fruit....

sorry messed that up....Im only 7 weeks out
