Christmas Cookies

You can buy Steel's Nature Sweet (I use the powder) at Bariatriceating.com or they also sell inullin (another sweetener that has NO sugar alcohol.)  Both are used just like sugar.  YUM!

I love those peanut butter chocolate drop cookies, Misty!!!  I think I even have a modified recipe for them.  I'll look at home.

It would be nice to see all the recipes...... please send and tell us howyou like them Annrenee Freddie where do you get Maltitol?   I would like to try it... The splendia is causeing some bloating and IBS promblems I think,  I would like to try something else I did order the steels,  but i didnt see the Maltitol or inullin, on the bariatric site.. Annrenee

Hi Annrenee! Maltitol is the name of the sweetener marketed by Steel's (they call it Nature Sweet crystals.)  If you already have the Steel's...just look at the list aof ingredients and you will see that you already own maltitol!  Go figure! The inulin is marketed as X-Weight on bariatriceating.com.  I haven't tried it yet but I will let you know how it does.   I hope that you will be feeling better very soon!  Let us know what your doctor says. Big smile! Freddie

If you are using the Steel's, that may be the cause of your bloating and IBS problems. I know it does a number on me.

I, too, have issues with too much sugar alcohol!  Hoping to reduce the effects, I have been using 1/3 Steel's, 1/3 Splenda and 1/3 Whey Low.  So far, so good.

hummmm whey low ok what is that.... feeling pretty dumb here lol Annrenee    never said I was the smartest cookie in the cookie jar hehehehehe

The only thing I have ever used was splenda.  I just ordered the steels today,  but what would cause a metal like taste hard to swallow bread and toast.  I have been going through some strang things,  I am just weird if its gonna happen its gonna happen to ME......  I am thinking of going and doing the 5 day pouch test just to drink protein again and stop eating for a few days,  All this is just getting to me I would rather drink and hopeful not feel this way then keep trying to eat and feel this way,  It is always one thing after another. BUT 60 pds GONE and darn it gone forever.   Thank you love all your inputs the TN board really does help.Annrenee

Okay I can't make a list who has the chimney's, who will put out the cookie's. You see when I was 23yrs old I played Santa for a friends of ours that owned a furniture store. It was quite eventful. But anywhoooo.,  All the ideas sound great. Hugs Barb

Good Morning Freddie!!!

Will you post the gingerbread recipe.  We have a recipe that calls for gingerbread in it and need some that don't have a lot of molassas in it.   Also, I love the clothes!  Were you 10 feet tall in another life?  I'm having to wear heels with most of the pants, so I know you did too!  It's a great feeling to look nice and get complimented for it too.  Thank you.
