My local frozen yogurt spot has a fat-free, sugar free vanilla frozen yogurt. My NUT told me I could have that if I wanted it but that I should let it melt a little so its a bit softer/thinner. I just entered my puree/full liquid stage too.

Someone recommended to make my own ice cream. Just tried it. Used chocolate soy milk and vanilla Protein Powder. After blending put in my cuisenart ice cream maker for 20 minutes. Flavor wasnt bad and used 1 1/2 times Protein so I'm getting about 8 grams of protein in a small 2oz serving.

I have a place near me the skinny frog that always has 2 sugar free flavors and all of them are 99% fat free, super tasty treat that the family likes also

I've been really tempted by the froyo shop in my office building, but I don't go there because of the carbs. They just lead me down a path to trouble, and slow my weight loss. I know not everyone has issues with carbs, so you may be fine with it, but you can make your own if you're interested in alternatives.

I've gotten into the habit of making something like soft-serve froyo with Protein powder. I do a mocha kind of thing with almond milk, Click mocha protein, some unsweetened cocoa powder and ice cubes - with a really good blender / Ninja / magic bullet it makes pretty convincing soft-serve. If you want tart, you could do the same but with vanilla protein and maybe some lemon sf Syrup , or those packets of true lemon, or even some lemon crystal light, or other tart flavors. Some greek yogurt can help with the tartness too, and help thicken it. If the ice makes it too watery, you can make ice cubes out of something like sf lemonade and use those instead.

When I was eating soft foods, I also would make lemon Jello with just the hot Water, add greek yogurt instead of cold water, and then mix in a scoop or two of vanilla protein powder. It made a kind of "fluff" that was very appealing in the summer, cool and tart.

I've been eating it since the puree stage. Now, I add 1/4 cop of soy nuts so I get some extra Protein.

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      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.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
