The standard list of cold summer treats may be a distant memory if you’re being a little – okay, a lot! – more cautious about your diet. Your weight loss surgery diet isn’t likely to include those cold treats like ice cream, root beer floats, ice cold soft drinks, and iced lattes. They’re way too sugary and high-calorie to have regularly.

Still, there are plenty of other cold treats that hit the spot, too. What do you do to stay refreshed, on track, and satisfied on hot days? I love frozen watermelon slush and sugar-free ice pops. Frozen bananas are a little higher in calories and carbs, but they’re way healthier than ice cream and still super healthy. What your summer secrets?

I'm 12 years post-op... I can no longer eat dairy - I've become lactose intolerant... the only dairy I can eat is yogurt. There are several frozen yogurt bars, frozen fruit, my favorite is the sugar free TROPICAL Popsicles - I buy them by the case. We're addicted to them in my household.

I should also mention, I live in Phoenix, so summers are brutal here.

Besides SF ice cold drinks and SF pops.

A little more indulgent is blend frozen fruit, milk and artificial sweetener.

Frozen grapes are really good!

I think I saw where Whole foods supposedly sells it.

They sell Halo ice cream at the regular grocery store. My Kroger sells it.

I looked in shop rite and online. Shop Rite doesn't carry it but they had Zero Artic. After surgery I'll order it on line. I assume they come in freezer boxes but some of the reviews said it was melted when they got it.
