Okay... I'm in liquids only. Not Clear Liquids, but liquids. I can have creamed Soups... Protein shakes and all of the normal liquids....

What are the thoughts on Frozen Yogurt??? We have a great little frozen yogurt place here in town and I would LOVE some right about now, but I'm not sure that is considered to be a "liquid".... ???

My appologies if this question comes across as being lame (like I should know better), but I'm honestly on the fence about this one...

People forget how much insurance costs people. Its usually a good chunk of our paychecks. Its just an ignorant thing to say. Lol

So very true! I pay almost $500 a month for my insurance coverage. I had a $500 Copay for my surgery and no additional costs. None the less, I have paid my dues! Not to mention, a sleeve covered by insurance vs. a sleeve paid out of pocket makes no difference... They both function the same.

I believe her mention of asking me if I paid for my surgery was just a low blow, because she thought my question was ridiculous.

I'm going to try to freeze small bite size servings of Greek yogurt. I'm going to place freezer paper on a plate and drop small teaspoon sized yogurt drops onto it. Freeze until hard and then put them in a ziplock. High protein, low sugar frozen yogurt bite.

IDK how well it will freeze but I'm going to try it.

I saw something like this on pinterest! I think people say it turns out good but I havent tried it yet. I freeze a lot of things. Frozen peas are fun to eat and so are grapes.

I love frozen grapes, I can't eat them yet because of the skin, but they do make a nice 'sweet' snack.

For some reason when I study I love to eat. Can't do that now of course but it's not a terrible thing to throw in my bag for the movies or whatever else. My baggies are just a lot smaller now lol

Holy peaa????haha i can see u really love your peas then!! I get my pea Protein from an organic food store down the road from where i live in london...2 spoons is about 20g protein its really lush!! Do u live in london?? The name of the store is whole earth in london..but if you dont live here...then am sure u can order it online...i will add you now on my fitness pal!!! Goodluck babes!!

There isn't. There are a ton of people that judge things based totally on what its called. Once I had a personal recipe I had entered into MYF that was sort of pizzaesque so I just called it Grace's pizza recipe over there and people saw the term "pizza" and bricks were shat. That's just the way it goes.

Hahahaha love this.

I haven't read through all of the responses, but you can make ice cream out of a Protein shake! Pretty tasty too. This way you are getting in your protein, which is your number 1 goal. (Well, Water is probably first on the list, protein second.)

Shelley at the World According to Eggface has lots of recipes for making protein ice cream:

Thank you for the link!!! That I awesome! I had NO idea!

Two years out... I'm on a bender eating frozen yog 3 times a week. I keep it small and low/non fat. I skip the sugar free because the sugar alcohol gets to me. I log everything I eat, and pay the price by not eating something else, or exercising a little bit more. I also bought the ice cream maker to make eggfaces protein ice cream recipes. I just got a new blender with a smoothy setting... I take an ESA carb control protein drink, a few ice cubes and a 1/8 cup of peanut flour...wizz it up and so YUM. Also 25 gms of protein.

I think it is always wise to keep to the Drs plan... especially early out... that tender little tummy needs lots of TLC. Don't make it digest more than it has too early out...plenty of time to test the water later!(as if water is the problem child!)...oh and by all means, go ahead and eat the pets wether you paid for them or not... they are non carb!(unless your pet is a potato)

All the frozen yogurt talk made me crave it. Got some sugar free at Sweet Frog for the first time since surgery (9 weeks) and it hit my intestines like a bomb. Guess that cured me...lol.

LOOOOL!!! That's funny. Lesson learned. It's funny how we have to learn through trial and error.

I had some great sugar free frozen yogurt sorbert, about 1 1/2 out. Just watch sugar. I also free greek yogurt (healthy choice sells it also). Yummy
