I am seven weeks out and all day I have been craving some type of ice cream or frozen goodie. So, this evening I drove to 7-11 and got two ice cream sandwiches and ate both of them. I enjoyed every bite!! Prior to surgery, it would have been a whole BOX of ice cream sandwiches and then I would have kept eating all kinds of crap until I was in a food coma!

Two ice cream sandwiches??!? I cAnt believe ur sleeve didnt protest! I'm so Afraid I would relapse if I ate goodies like that- I'm a cake person n I'm scared to eat a teaspoon of it!

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.

Yesterday I had a cake pop from Starbucks. It was so delicious!!!

I font know what a cake pop is, but it sounds good!

I indulge in 4 oz of sugar free frozen yogurt, I don't think it's a cheat because my nut approved it! But, I put a tablespoon of shredded coconut on it! My bad!

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

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.

oh me gee I would kill for a cheat right now..... not even one week post op!

*i can do this! I can do this! I can do this! I can do this!*

Yes you can do this, that post op diet will be over before you know it & you will be feeling great!

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!

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

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

It's obvious you didn't work out.... You are here confessing like a murderer ,if you did you would not be filled with remorse and need to lash out. Do you, and when your "sleeve fails"and you get converted to bypass. Come back here and let the nice ladies "support"you ,after all you deserve it.
