Breyer's No Sugar, Low Fat Question.



Recommended Posts

I'm 4 days out.

On my list I can have yogurt like lemon light and fit dannon, thinned cream of wheat, in addition to of course, Protein Shakes and other liquids.< /p>

So I took about a half cup of this vanilla ice cream which is totally melty because I'm having it so slowwwwwly. Honestly because of the 10 day pre-liquid diet this is the best thing I've had in 3 weeks.

Question, how fast will I know if it isn't a wise choice? Will I possibly get diarrhea or nausea later.

I seem to be tolerating it so well but of all the horror stories I'm not sure when I'd be out of the woods so to speak. Did anyone have this in the very beginning?

So far I had 2 Protein shakes (totaling 65 grams of protein today), some Water and this.

Thanks!

I'm not judging you here.....but.........i'd TOTALLY stay away from the ice cream. It's a very bad habbit to start, and hard to stay away from once you start eating crap foods like that. my advisce is, if you start treating yourself this early on, you might be one of those posts down the road like: why am I not losing?.......

Stick to the foods the DR has directed you to, and you will be much better off. :)

Good luck, I know it's tough.....but hang in there!

I would imagine that if you are lactose intolerant you should know by now. I tried some ice cream and it was not a good choice. For many reasons.

You should know right away!

When I eat sugar I kind of "dump" I have a hot flash and have to use the restroom within 10 minutes.

That being said, I second the stay away from ice cream! Even if it is sugar free, sugar subs can make you crave it even more. I super regret eating sugar a month or two out because now I find it super hard to stay away from it. As others on here waited four or five months to try it and now find it too sweet. I wish that is how it was for me.

It's been 4 hours and I'm fine.

I appreciate your words of wisdom and will not make it a habit.

It's done, I enjoyed it but I definitely understand the concept of it as a sort of gateway drug...even with the no sugar, low fat.

It's a learning experience...thank you for your honesty. :)

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
