Tootsie Rolls?

The other night when I went to a support meeting, people were talking about the treats that they have. A couple of people said that they would eat mini tootsie rolls! I was so surprised. I asked the man who was talking about it if they were something we could have and he said that there was only a small amount of sugar in them. I'm terrified to try anything with sugar since I had a dumping experience once. Does anyone else eat these?

my first instinct is to say that he is nuts! i would have to see the ingredients etc but tootsie rolls are not a smart idea i would think--sorry- just my opinion

I agree with Margo, I would be very cautious. Make sure you are at home and close to the commode. Be prepared for the possible consequences. Didn't we have this surgery to help keep us away from all this stuff? Good Luck! Lise

I didn't say that I was eating them! I am way to afraid for that. I was wondering if anyone else had tried them. My vice at the moment is spinach and I only dream of eating something with sugar.

cathy...we didn't say that you were eating them--!!!silly girl!!!! actually, some of us can tolerate sugar-and maybe he didn't have rny? anyhow- there are sugar free candies out there once you get to that point if you really need a splurge- although many get the runs from them with the artificial sweetener... it is all a "self" thing- what you are willing to do for yourself and the limits you impose on yourself so that you may best use your tool- none of us are perfect- at least i certainly am not! and there have been some choices made that were probly not in my best interest--i have paid for them somehow- either dumping or not losing or whatever- so-you be your own judge- and remember that mini tootsies are designed to tease- almost like lays chips- ya can't eat just one!
