Ice cream is a slider. Probably could have eaten more. The only real concern is triggering a lactose intolerance. I doubt that will happen because of something this minor, and even if it does, it will most likely go away eventually.

I had a small sundae from macdonalds today, no topping, and only ate about 3 of the tiny spoons worth of it. I wanted it, so I got it, I had enough to curb the craving, and stopped when I lost interest and didn't want any more. I do not feel guilty at all. Learning that want my head wants and what my tummy likes are now 2 different things.

What helps me is looking at the nutritional info on the package of the treat that I want. I don't know what ice cream sandwiches were eaten but I checked a few on my fitness pal and even the weight watchers brand were 30 grams of carbs each. That's 60 total for those 2 sandwiches. That's my motivation for not eating them right there.

The other day I pulled into Sonic because my wife wanted a diet coke. I suddenly had the urge for some tater tots. Their tater tots are like little fried golden nuggets of sunshine to me, so I got a small order. As I drove away from the window, I put 3 or 4 in my mouth and dumped the rest in the trash can 10 feet past the drive thru window. I had to hurry and drive to that trash can before I got any more in my mouth. I could have eaten 2 big bags of them and I wouldn't have been any more satisfied or fulfilled so why not just throw them away.

I like the sugar free frozen yogurt I put fresh blueberries and strawberries while my husband puts every topping they have on his. I don't have it often but it is a good treat

&&&maybe they are using their phone while they are working off their extra treat ... Na na na na naa na! Why are you getting snotty? Oh you do know to exercise more .. But but you didn't !!! Now you feel guilty and want to turn it at me ? Ok.

Uhmm.. who is getting snotty because it sure isn't me. And how on earth would you know when or how much i work out? Anyways, that was immature so I'm done talking about it.

Frozen yogurt is really good, and a good alternative to ice cream. I actually sometimes make my own chocolate Protein frozen yogurt. Then i get an awesome treat that i can include as one of my Protein meals & i feel so spoiled lol.

Oh my gosh, I'd kill for two ice cream sangas to be a cheat- I'm presleeve and tonight had some potato chips, soda, and chocolate! Not that much of each to be sure but I have that awful junk food mouth taste, kinda scratchy and sore :( I've been so "good" and this week has been terrible but I'm getting back on the horse over and over again- I think that's the key :)

I've also been up to a lot of walking and exercise lately so maybe u haven't been keeping up with the calories I need with good food so my tummy starts craving those quick calories?

I think we all know when to exercise and what to eat but I'd like to see someone tell a skinny person to get off their butt and exercise every time we see them eat a naughty food. I think youd probably get a big punch in the nose!

As part of a lifelong change there is always room for a nice treat!!! Don't ever forget the importance of listening to your body! It sounds like original poster knew she wanted something cold and sweet and ate it! Go for it! Although I tend to yum sorbets, passion fruit or mango especially. Lol!

Idk if id consider any of this cheating..considering its not a horrendous amount of food.

I had a pint of frozen greek yogurt over the course of 12 hours( aka over night). I kept going back to it

Isnt it summer in the US? I'm sure most people are eating a few cold things in the hot weather... :)

I font know what a cake pop is' date=' but it sounds good![/quote']

A cake pop is just a cake on a stick. It's smaller in portion than a slice of cake.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!
