I have to know if we can have sf ice cream during the full liquid stage or if we can have sf frozen yogurt.....My throat is so raw from the intubation and cold things make it feel better. I know ice cream is not a good food choice but with me being limited to certain things for right now I do not see where it would hurt in a small amount and being sf....please do not respond to tell me that this is a bad food choice this is only something I am wanting to do for a few days to soothe my throat......Thank you

I went over the food list that my nutrionist gave to me pre op and sugar free lowfat frozen yogurt is under the full liquid diet section. Maybe you could also try sugar free frozen fruit pops?

Feel better

How about a frozen frut pop? Would that help or a no sugar added frozen fruit dessert? If your doctor will allow it I like to blend a cold chocolate Protein drink with half a frozen banana. That might also feel good on your throat. Once he clears you for soft foods like puddings I love freezing SF chocolate pudding with some Protein powder mixed in until its the consistency of soft serve icecream. I stir in just a little Peanut Butter to take the edge off the fake chocolate taste, but I've heard of others stirring in things like a pinch of instant coffee instead.

Good luck this phase will be over before you know it.

I wasn't allowed ice cream until I went onto solid foods (6 weeks after surgery), and even then I only eat fat-free and sugar-free, so unless approved by your doctor or nutritionist, my advice would be to try something else.

When my throat hurt, I found that sugar-free ice pops or Italian ices did the trick for me.

Sugar free Popsicles do wonders......

Frozen fruit pops were on my liquid diet list and I found them very refreshing as I, too, was thirsty a lot.
