ice cream....big mistake



Recommended Posts

My daughter celebrated her 17th birthday today. I am 2 1/2 months out. Decided to pass on the cake but to try a small scoop of ice cream. Big mistake! I got so sick to my stomach! It was first attempt at sugar. You live and you learn (the hard way)!

I haven't had surgery yet, so I'm not sure this idea will work... I've seen ice cream that is 1/2 the fat with no sugar. I wonder, if you wait for it to get a little soft, then putting stevia in it & mixing it in, would you be then able to eat a little bit?

The same thing happened to me! I'm kind of glad...won't be tempted again, very soon!

I can eat a small amount of hard ice cream, but soft serve or more than 3 bites makes me feel like I'm dying.

I am 4 months out and tried a little frozen yogurt this past weekend. My stomach handled it ok, but I did end up with a little reflux from it. And I did not eat alot, just several bites. Was delish!

oh wow thanks for sharing, I will prob try sugar free icecream and when I do I will try it at home!! I was wondering if sugar was gonna be an enemy. I am almost 3 weeks out and I have not had over 7grams of sugar! Good luck

I am 8 months out and I have a scoop of sorbet every once in a while and I dont have any issues at all but I did not try it until I was like 6 months out.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
