I can't get enough!!!!

Sugar.

I cannot believe how much sugar I've been eating recently.  When I say I was never a sweets person, I really mean it.  I would much rather eat fast food (pre op) chips, crackers, pretzels over lollipops, ice cream, cookies any day.

I do not get sick on sugar, I do dump on fatty things.  But ice cream always made me sick, now I can eat like a cup and a half with noooo problems.  I just ate half a Cinnabon, a swirly lollipop and 2 peanut butter cookies.  I feel like a huge pig but I am seriously craving it...

AHH sorry just a vent.  Am I alone here???

I never had a problem with ice cream before surgery and I know that Lap banders aren't supposed to dump, but now if I have ice cream, I feel like I have the dumping the RNYers get. It's crazy. Other sugary or fatty stuff doesn't bother me.

Now that you mentioned Cinnabon, I REALLY want one now! I think I may have to get me one tomorrow.

No...

I have plowed through a package of double stuffed oreos and Mothers Taffy cookies this week. :( Yesterday I had a blizzard from Dairy queen (and paid for it!), jalapeno poppers from Jack in the Box, and a junior whopper with onion rings from Burger King.

Not to mention that I have been on a creme Cadbury Egg kick..... oh and my decaf iced carmel machiatto with extra carmel from Starbucks today.

It was a bad weekend for me. I am going back on track tomorrow - granola and greek yogurt for breakfast, strawberries for snack, grilled  chicken and cucumbers for lunch..... I need to behave myself or I am going to gain some serious weight!

All I can say is thank GOD I get sick on anything over 15 grams of sugar or else I probably would have gained 30 lbs in the last few days.  All that I want is sweets!  I think I might donate a limb for a cinnabon.  

I feel for you...I really do.  Just try to do your best and have something for me ;)

I don't get sick on fats though so I have been indulging in that unfortunately.  If I can slather butter on it, I try.

I'm terrible :(

THANK GOD I dump too. Can't handle even sugar free or NSA ice cream or anything more then one of the "Fun size" candy bars without paying dearly.

Yeah, since I have been preggers, my tolerance for sugar has gone WAY down. I never really had a problem with it before. I also have not been able to eat any ice cream (sf or NSA). I don't know if it's dumping with those, I really think it's the lactose. But it makes me sad because I really want chocolate and everything sweet right now. It's a really good thing I can't have cinnabon cuz now I really want one too!

no.. not alone... all i want in the whole world is to eat a cookie... however  think little darling dear is a sugar hater.... i had a few bites of the brownie obesession from fridays and by the time i got home ( 30 mins) i was vomiting.... same goes for cake... pie... anything like that

I used to dump really bad on anything over 3g of sugar.  Now days I can pretty much eat whatever I want with the exception of fried foods.  Anything with a small amount of grease makes me wanna yack......

Im actually glad to know Im not the only one craving sweets, I swear I have like a half a cup of ice cream every other day, and I have been eating fruit like a champ!!  Strawberries and watermelon are my main wants right now!

I had hard core cravings for bread products not to long ago thank goodness those went on the back burner.  Im terrified of regaining weight.  My dr however is a little ticked that Im not gaining anything, he finally basically threw his arms up and just asked me to maintain.  But the catch is, IM NOT TRYING TO LOSE!!

Good luck sweetie and I hope you have a wonderful pregnancy and healthy baby!
