Oh Yes Ice Creammm... I used to sit late at night with a huge bowl and eat it slowly... I had a love affair with it after husband went to bed.. I cannot have it around me.. I have eaten frozen yogurt since being banded but it's the weight watchers greek so it's not as evil...I know it is a trigger and I have to be strong enough to avoid it... I will say since being banded my craving is not as strong...

i am a firm believer in everything in moderation

esp now that i have been banded and every so often types foods are fine but if you feel strongly that this ice cream (or missy pnut butter cups which are awesome and just the right size mind you) call you all out 24/7 then i strongly concur with keeping them at the store and not as your house...

my food that i refuse to buy or have in my house

cheese its....there is a strong 95% chance that if i opened the box, crumbs would be all that is left so i do not buy it......i cringe when i see those commercials as i can literally taste them...how silly is that.

thought about you yesterday,, while at the supermarket (Publix) I saw Artic Freeze Ice Cream.. it's sugar free, gluten free, low calories.. 75 for a 1/2 cup... not bad.. now I had to buy some to try.. it comes in 1 pt.. I got the chocolate /peanut butter.. both my favorite flavors... it was okay, not ben and jerry's or haagen daz but pretty good... kinda pricey $4.59/pt... but if you have a hankering for ice cream give it a try.

Well, my husband and I are both testing as 3+ on dairy products for allergies. So we are staying away from ice cream and all dairy. I must admit, I too am an ice cream addict! Staying away from Dairy Queen and McDonald's frappes, and Starbucks Frappachinos, is one day a t a time!!!

Best luck to all of our addictions! I believe in a Higher Power!

how interesting....was that one of the metametrix igG tests? I tested as a 5+ for milk, but can't completely give it up! I'm not much of a meat eater,so it'm my Protein source! I LOVE greek yogurt, cottage cheese, cheese, milk (the only thing I have done is switch my milk to almond breeze, unsweetened, coconut flavored. But I also have a 3+ to almonds peanuts oranges and garlic...ahhh can't win lol

If I had to pick one food that was a major trigger for me it would be ice cream. I was actually gonna post on here about it...Quahog I think you may have given me the strength to try to start qutting!

I did not test anything for almonds, but after 3 weeks, my muscles were sore, so I looked it up, and sounds like I can't have almonds or almond milk, either. i switched to coconut milk!

      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.
