Feeling sick after eating sweets?

Thatonechickoverthere

I used to eat sweets all the time and I loved them back when I was gaining weight. Now that I'm losing weight I eat it once in a while as a treat. Usually I try to go over my calories a few days a week and stay under the other days because it helps me lose weight. So yesterday was an over day so I was looking for something to eat with more calories in it. On low calorie days I wouldn't eat something like this, it was a parfait thing with chocolate pudding and cookie dough chunks. So while I was eating it my stomach felt kind of sick. So I'm guessing my stomach is not used to me eating this kind of stuff anymore. And I realized I should have chosen something else with more calories and less sugar, perhaps something higher in protein. Huge mistake I made, eating something with more sugar calories.

Never happened to me.

Some combinations sometimes do a similar thing to me. Was this a large portion of food compared to what you've been eating?

Some days I can eat 4 chocolate chip cookies covered in custard, chocolate syrup & sprinkles and feel great. Other times, not so much.

I wouldn't say write this off as a loss - just keep this reaction in mind and try something different next time.

never had this issue unless I was gorging on a bunch of candy or something...

Well it was dinner time and I was really under my calories at that point and the meal I was eating still wasn't enough so I had that dessert right after. I think it was the combination of too much sugar plus me eating a lot at once. My body is definitely not used to me eating big portions anymore and it's also not used to me eating a high amount of sugar anymore.

Oh yes, now that I've reduced sugar, I can no longer eat Snickers bars or Peppermint Patties without feeling sick. I used to get them frequently when food shopping.

When you need more calories, choose healthy fats, not sugars. Coconut oil....mmmm.....
