Ice Cream is a "red light" food for me, and it is banned from my home....I dont want any parts of it, sugar-free or other wise...

there's something called Yonanas that I've been eyeing up. It turns any solidly frozen fruit into "ice cream" but it's only fruit - no other ingredience (unless you add them yourself!) . The commercial for it makes it look awesome, but I really wanna try it before I spend $50 on it!

I'm not banded yet, but it looks like it'd be great!

Check out "The World According to Eggface". It's a blog written by a RNY patient and she posts wonderful recipes, including ricotta bake (to die for and allowed on mushies) and protein ice cream! :)

On the Eggface site, you can "search" for recipes. I bought an ice cream maker and am getting ready to make her pistachio ice cream!

Breyers makes a CarbSmart line that isn't bad.

The best I've had..pre-op was Edy's sugar free, fat free, vanilla!

Freeze a banana in slices, put it in the blender with a bit of skim milk. It will turn the banana into a soft-serve like consistency. My daughter loves it, too.

Any of you just sit down and eat a little bit of your favorite ice cream....I had some rocky road less than a 4th of a cup and it was amazing. I have no intention of completely depriving myself :) although I make myself earn the treat like when I get done walking 4 miles I feel ok having a couple bites of Rocky road :)

Healthy Choice has a frozen greek yogurt that is great, has good protein and tastes yummy. Can't remember exact sugar, but it was good.

Skinny Cow has a whole line of ice cream products that are delish! You can go online to see the nutritional info before you buy them.

My wife bought one of those yonana things and loves it. She got it right before my surgery, so i only got to try it once, but i also thought it was good. The consistency is just like ice cream, but it is all frozen fruit. I can't wait until i can have some of that, but I am going to wait a while longer, since I am only 3 weeks out. It would probably be ok right now, but I need the room for protein.

No! No! And don't put the idea inside my head : ) I'm trying to stay away from the foods that got me to where I needed the sleeve. I'm also trying to get away from the idea of food as a reward. It does sound good though.

Yeah Skinny Cow are good. Weight Watchers also makes mini cones with 75 calories, or chocolate raspberry pops with 45 calories. Even a sugar free popsicle for 10 calories will sometimes satisfy the craving. I have done diets in the past where I completey banned certain things from my life, and then when I lost weight I craved those things so badly I would go berserk. So now that I am in this I want a lifestyle change that will stick. That includes learning how to deal with sweet treats in a healthy way, and these products have helped me to do this. That and fruit. Love me some mango!! ;)
