Soda flavored icees



Recommended Posts

I don't think so.... but probably loaded with sugar!

I agree with TKW......I don't know if I would want the added empty calories! But I suppose as a treat once in a while, it would be okay. I don't think they are carbonated.....it is Syrup on ice basically.

I treat myself to one of the small ones no more than once a month so I can still have that coke flavor I crave. They don't give me any problems when I drink them so they should be fine.

Do soda flavored icees still have carbonation?

Great idea. I like the flavor of Coke, too.

I have found a sugar-free variety of those. They are 7-up,rootbeer, and orange soda flavored. It think there may even be a Dr. Pepper flavor. I haven't actually tried them but saw them in the freezer section and picked some up for my dad who is diabetic, and he is hooked! Like an addict hooked! lol...

I tried one but it still has some bubbles so I gave it to my kids.

Not sure about the bubbles but I would think you'd get a lot of gas from having to suck it through a straw...

If you are talking about icee...the fluffy icy drink I find at the movie theaters, yes there is carbination and lots of sugar as that's what helps keep it Fluid like and not freez up according to their web site. Plus like said above u normally drink them with a straw so that puts even more air into the pouch. If you are talking about ice pops then no, there is no carbination in them and yes they make sugar free ice pops in soda flavors that are ok for bandsters to have. Hope that clears it up for you :)

Never tried though you may want to try making your own icee using Torani sugar free syrups or DaVinci. They come in all sorts of flavors. Worth a try!

I went to the movies with a friend of mine and wanted an Icee so bad, so I got one, not even thinking about the carbonation or drinking out of the straw. About mid-way through the movie I started getting the worst pains in my chest and neck. The GAS WAS HORRIBLE!!!! I thought I was having a heart attack! The neck pain from gas after my surgery wasn't even this bad. I recommend staying FAR AWAY from Icees. The pain is not worth it!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
