Sorry about all the questions but they are all on my mind. Again 17 days post op and starting to live again. Highs have been in the 90s where we live. I have been enjoying sugar free Popsicles but wondered if anyone else had any great frozen treat ideas? Frozen yogurt?

I bought a snow cone machine. The lady at the store said I could put anything on it. Like crystal light. Someone else said you can get some kind of ice pebbles by the bag at Sonic. If you use them it's more like snow thank snow cones.

I really enjoy these ice cream bars called Enlightened. They come in six different flavours, only have about 6 grams of sugar, have between 5 - 9 grams of Protein, are between 70 - 100 calories, and several grams of fibre. They're sweetened with sugar alcohol though which sometimes doesn't sit well with everyone. And they're pricey - $5 for four bars. I think they're worth it though because when eating so few calories I can't really justify eating something without protein or fibre. There's another ice cream brand called Arctic Zero which is ok but doesn't have the protein but is also low in calories and sugar without using aspartame or sucralose. I found a new brand today called Halo Top which reminds me of Enlightened when it comes to nutrition, except that it's in a pint rather than a bar. Haven't actually tried it yet.

I love Yasso bars - Greek yogurt, 100 calories and they come in amazing flavors.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
