What brand and where?

The lowest calorie ones, I think, are the Popsicle brand, sugar free at 15 calories each. They are available just about anywhere. I suppose you could also make your own with Crystal Light or something similar.

Sorry to be a Mommy nag. But you want to stay away from sugar and sweet things (even with fake sugar or “fruit” - it’s sugar!). If you are craving cold, try (don’t laugh, it works if you don’t eat sugar and fruit) buying or making snow cone ice and drenching it in coconut Water and splashing coconut or dairy heavy cream on the top. No sugar (coco water is kinda sweet) but fatty and cold and yummy.

Getting off sugars and fake sugars I think will be key to keeping weight off. It changes the gut bugs in us and thus eliminates the cravings for sweets. Just an idea. I eat plenty of fat every day, but healthy fat, over 50% of my calories daily, and steadily lose weight. Fat doesn’t make you fat or crave sugar. Sugar and fake sugar do.

When your on clears I don’t think Creamer is an option, but that could just be with my dr.

My doctor said I could eat a whole box a day if I wanted to. (I don't of course). But it is a good way to get Fluid in after surgery.

      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!!

      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... :(
