I’m almost 2 weeks post op and had a serious craving for something sweet....put some light cool whip in the freezer....put a tiny bit of caramel sauce on it and I’m in HEAVEN!!! Better than ice cream 🙏😱

Yes, sweets have always been my downfall and I was loving me some sugar-free popsicles just after surgery

Glad you found a good substitute. I've endulged in pints of Halo Top and other high Protein, low sugar ice creams (some also have decent Fiber content). They certainly don't taste as good as real ice cream but I figure if I stick with it after a while it will be the new normal.

Or you'll decide it isn't worth the trouble any more, at least that's how I now feel about my former junky food sweets, don't know why I used to like them so much?
Really makes it easier to avoid them now. that's a Slippery Slope yours truly isn't going to go sledding down anymore.😝My new size is such a hard-won📦 prize I won't mess it up.

I made banana SF pudding the other day with FairLife milk and a scoop of Peanut Butter powder- tastes like a pb/banana sandwich. Low cal, low fat, good amount of Protein.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
