Why not?? I'd stay away from nutty types and stick w/ just flavors, tho.

Im not allowed and im almost 2 weeks post op. I think ice cream has way to much stuff that isn't good for you(sugar and so on). Your probably better off freezing yogurt and having that

Okay here's a thought.

5 packs koolaid

Sugar substitute (whatever is equivalent to 4 cups regular sugar)

Water

Put it in your ice cream freezer and freeze it just like ice cream. I haven't tried it yet with sugar substitute but I know its great with regular sugar. I hope the substitute wouldn't hinder the freezing process.

Like I said.....it was just a thought! :)

I ate ice cream a couple weeks out also. I don't think its a huge deal because you won't be able to eat all that much of it anyway... I thought since it was a liquid I would be able to eat too much, but found out quickly that my sleeve didn't like all the coldness.

I've read a lot of people are lactose intolerant after surgery, so I think I'd just say be careful what kind you get. I know I have SF Popsicles on my list & I know someone mentioned fudgscicles at their full liquid stage. I think you still have to be careful though.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
