Hi all,

I am 3 days post op, surgery was Monday. Do you think low fat sherbert or sugarfree sherbert would be ok? Popcicles are just not doing it anymore.... My husband brought home some Blue Bell Low fat Raspberry and Strawbery sherbert. I has a couple spoonfulls and it was heaven. Not sure if I should continue having a small portion every now and then or not....what are your thoughts veterans ;)

By the way, I am on full liquids only.

My first thought is…. ALL that sugar. I don't think the sherbet will hurt you as far as being on full liquids, but I don't think leaning on something "ice cream" like is the best choice. If your doctor allows it at your stage, how about some nonfat or low fat yogurt?

Sorbets/Sherbets were on my full liquid "menu". I had some often during that timeframe.

i used to freeze my lean and fit greek yogurt. i liked the cold. like with everything. if it fits into your calorie count for the day. enjoy. just be sure to count it. and as a newbie think Protein first, and ice cream does have Protein. :P

Yogurt is not part of a clear liquid diet. But, check with your surgeon's office, sherbert might be. Best wishes, it is worth a try. I lived on the sugar free popcicles the 1st couple weeks after surgery! kll724

I would say yes if you can get it sugar free because its very high in sugar and sugar turns to fat just sayin

I'm on full liquids, not clear to clarify :) I wish I liked yogurt, I just can't handle it :( Cold just feels so nice and I wanted a little something different. ... boo

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
