Start by ordering a bag of Whey Low powder sugar substitute.   For chocolate fudge, use this recipe but use the Whey Low powdered sugar instead of real powdered sugar.  Instead of Eagle Brand condensed milk, get a can of Carnation Evaporated Skim Milk and mix a half cup of the powdered sugar substitute with the evaporated skim milk.

One secret to this fudge is to not stir too much and to use a candy thermometer to be sure it is at 234 degrees for the soft ball stage, but I do the ice water test.  It took me time to get things right.  I have used many other substitutes and found Whey Low to be the best out there.

If you can't wait for the Whey Low to arrive, you can put Splenda into the blender and blend it down to powder sugar consistency.  I honestly can't remember if the Splenda will get to the soft ball stage but it will still make a good tasting fudge.

I just find recipes for what I want and then substitute healthier ingredients.

You have provided me the excellent ideas.  I thank youuuuu do much.  I would love your recipes for sugar free cakes, cookies and fudge.  

How long did it take you too reach your goal?

I'm currently tracking on MyFitness Pal. I'm looking at the carbs and sugar. What's the typical goals for either 1 6 months out? I forgot to ask the Nutrionist last week. MyFitness Pal sets limits, but that's not for post surgery. 

Thanks.

Please do not downgrade something that you do not know anything about...I do not consider THRIVE a marketing scam...rather another health alternative.  Just as you chose to have a surgical procedure done...

Le-Vel was a way for me to better myself and has allowed me to be the best that I can be...I have had NUMEROUS benefits from this vitamin and mineral supplement. 

It is okay if you do not agree...but your thought process may not be that of everyone else's.

Kindly,

Kristin

It's a matter of reading the ingredients - if the first ingredient is whey protein isolate, you're likely good to go.  I prefer Optimum Nutrition brand.
