Question:
I'm 6 mos.post-op and craving candy. Is it ok to try the sugar free candy

made by Russell Stover,they make a wonderful looking turtle thats sugar free. I'm RNY distal and haven't tried anything sweet in all this time. I just want 1 piece every once in a while.    — [Anonymous] (posted on October 27, 1999)

I am over 4 1/2 years post-op and I only had a RNY proximal and I cant eat those. The sugar substitute in those things kill me. It is just like eating table sugar. I would be very careful. Good Luck, Lorinda

I had one turtle awhile back and it was so good. I bought one only and ate it in two sittings. It was sugar free, but not fat free so you need to be very careful. Enjoy, but be careful.
