Frozen yogurt is loaded with sugar so is sherbert. Try the skinny cow products they taste great and low in fat/sugur and calories.

Most froyo shops have sugar free flavors. I tried coffee sf froyo the other day and loved it until two bites in I realized it probably had caffeine and stopped eating it. Ugh!

I love sherbet' date=' but when I checked the containers in the grocery store they had too much sugar. My surgeon said anything over 17g will cause dumping. Thoughts? I'd love frozen yogurt from a ice cream place, but still afraid of dumping.[/quote']

Just a thought. How about shaved ice with DaVinci sugar free syrups? Sort of like a snow cone. Also, when my kids were little I used to make homemade pudding pops and yogurt pops. Just put your favorite pudding or yogurt in a Dixie cup, stick in a Popsicle stick, and freeze. With summer approaching and ice cream on my no-no list, this is what I plan to have.

I found a frozen greek yogurt at the store thats new and is AMAZING.

I get the blueberry and its so good. Taste like blueberry pie and has the same amount of Protein and sugar that a regular greek yogurt has.

Yes check the sugar

Always check your Total Carbs. Sugar may say 5 grams but it is not total carbs

ranchbrat, your point is important. All dairy has carbs which become sugar once they hit your blood stream, so it' s not just the sugar but the carb total that matters. Most NUTs talk about total carbs, not sugar grams but carb grams.

lucky for me, I gave up all cow milk products some time ago for antiinflammatory reasons. I make a coconut milk 'ice cream' without sugar. And I take frozen banana, blend it with frozen berries for something that is a lot like ice cream. Yes, the fruit has some carbs and I won't be able to eat this in the early months post op. Half a banana and 1/4 cup frozen berries makes a very tasty sweet treat for me and frozen bananas taste a lot like ice cream to me. You can also add frozen banana or berries to Protein shakes to give them a more ice creamy texture.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
