Recommended Posts

I sit here enjoying my new fave treat a diet coke slushie frm sonic. Little did i know that sonics base slush is filled with sugar ,so my "diet" coke slush is just a sugary slush with diet coke added. I looked up the nutritional info and it has 145 carbs! Lol Well this is my last one ever ;( . I knew it tasted waaay to good . Ive managed to stay in ketosis "shrugs" oh well . Back to my old fav snack watermelon.

@@freezepop two questions....when was your surgery and how well do you tolerate watermelon?

I am 4mths out and i tolerate watermelon fine its a semi slider so i can eat a decent amount in a day ... i eat maybe a half of a large watermelon in a week. It has satisfied my fruit addiction. I dont dump ..hence me having to read about the sugar 4 slushees later smh . So if you are really sensitive to sugar watermelon might bother you. I love it.

they are also carbonated. or is that just slurpies?

The ones i had been getting at sonic weren't carbonated. But I think slurpies are . Its been so long since I've had a slurpie :)

It is possible to get a sugarfree slush at Sonic- the trick is to ask for an "add in" flavor ONLY with no slush Syrup base. I did this with the sugarfree mango and the sugarfree raspberry and they were yummy. The add in favors are colorless so it looks like a cup of plain crushed ice but it is delicious!

From my understanding, the ice part of it is sugar Water frozen. My source is my daughter who is a manager at Sonic.

BOOOO...and we don't have diet slurpees around my area any more either. we had them for a couple years. a co-worker who used to manage a 7-11 told me that the diet slurpee mix broke down multiple machines and 7-11 decided to discontinue them due to high costs of replacing machines.,...

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
