Learned my lesson

I thought I would push the envelope, tried a small piece of cake with some ice cream. BAD idea! I never want to feel that pain again. In a way I'm glad it made me so sick, sweets were always my weakness. Not anymore, thank god.

blessings to all 

I'm so afraid to try any sweets because of horror stories like this, I avoid them like the plague! 

Hi Quiltingnonnie!

Sorry to hear about your bad experience. One of the most challenging things of our post-op life, is learning to avoid/stop the old habits. Yes, I eat some food that I shouldn't. Luckily, I don't get sick. But I am still training my brain to eat better. I think I have been doing a good job so far. After 40+ years of eating unhealthy foods, my new habits of eating healthy will not happen over night. 

Hang in there and do the best that you can to avoid those temptations. Will a little time, we will all succeed. 

Cheers,

Skotti
