Chocolate.....

[Claire33]

3 weeks and 2 days post op and craving chocolate.....would a few malteasers be okay as they r pretty much air underneath the chocolate
I'm still on fluid stage until 4 weeks....any advice x

No! Never mind that you are so still newly post -op and on liquids and maltesers are empty calories, giving into your cravings now is the beginning of the slippery slope to not getting your head into the right place! Forget chocolate!!!

Damn i knew someone would say that lol. X

No - step away from the chocolate. Stick to your plan from your team - it works!!! I'm 9 weeks out now and had one square of chocolate on Friday as a treat but wouldn't have considered it at the stage you're at.
You may be mistaking hunger / craving for thirst. Keep those fluids up.

Thanks guys ur right it's probably thirst I'm not drinking enough. I'm also waiting for my forceval as the soluble ones made me sick so haven't had it for a while now x

 

[MrsN]

Soluable ones made me sick too.

No, no, no and NO!

Maltesers are 53% sugar so will more than likely cause you to dump, which isn't pleasant. Its not worth making yourself ill

Thank u....so far not had any dumping so will steer away xx
