Chocolate Cravings

Hey post-op peeps!

what do you do about the chocolate cravings?   I don't mean like 'hey, i'd like a piece of chocolate' but the insane 'momma gotta have it!!!!!!!' cravings.

My chocolate protein shakes are helping me through those. I've also made some homemade protein fudgesicles with SF jello, milk, and chocolate protein powder and they are keeping my cravings at bay!

Keep you eyes on the prize. Just think about how much better you will feel when you lose the weight. I tried to picture myself doing things I never could before. Like going on rides. Not worrying about going to dinner and not being able to sit in a booth. Or sitting in a booth and having my stomach hang over it. Or going to the same places so I knew I could sit.

I love now I can walk for hours and before I couldn't. It feels so good. I didn't have to lie and say I felt sick so I could go home.

I know you asked about cravings they suck. Head hunger can be bad. Make a list on why you had the surgery and what you will be able to do.

Have you tried the Bariatric Advantage Chocolate Calcium Chews?  You get three per day and they're pretty good.  

This is my answer too. Just make sure you get the chews, not the lozenges. I like the peanut butter chocolate.

Corrie,

I have those too. Just love them! I have to be careful because there have been times that I had more than i need.

I am enjoying the new light and fit greek yogurt with chocolate on top. 

I tried the strawberry with chocolate on top the other night. Pure delight!!
