Oh I wouldn't eat something with sugar- just thought if we can have Popsicles maybe they had something SF / working to hard at this to ruin it!!

Congrats on deciding on the sleeve! DQ doesn't offer anything that's sugar-free, and most stores only have 1-2 items that have no added sugar (likely to still contain a ton of natural sugars).

I would advise against it, as I doubt they have anything that is a good mix of high Protein, low carbs and low fat. Plus, some sleevers say sugary treats don't sit well with their new tummies. But if you're really interested, Google "Dairy Queen Nutrition" and you'll get this. Personally, I glanced at it and they're all a little too high in sugary carbs for my preference. That being said, I think too much deprivation is not good for the long run. Perhaps if you have a friend or loved one who's willing to share a treat, let you have a bite or two? That usually satiates me when I have a hankering for something sweet, not more than once every week or so.

Try a sugar free popsicle. 15 calories. That's my go-to when I need something sweet. :)

I can't remember where I heard this, but I've heard that 7g of sugar or less is going to be the best to stop the tummy from being nauseous. I would say you could have a little something, but the key word here is little (like a tablespoon or 2).

I chose a bottle of Fred instead - zero everything :-)

You can find frozen yogurts that are sugar free and really good because you have been so long without sugar. I actually find it beneficial to allow myself to occasionally indulge. I gave up smoking, I gave up drinking, I gave up my food addiction. I feel that if I don't get an occasional treat I will go overboard. Not everyone can do that, if sweets were your weak spot before than you may want to consider what treat you allow yourself. For example, I can never ever go back to sodas. That will open a flood gate for me.

Fred is amazing natural spring Water - I don't know WHY but I love it- it's got a velvety texture- crisp and refreshing- I find it at Holiday!!

I have had DQ once, about 3 months out. It was HORRIBLE!!!! My stomach had fits for hours. Diarrhea for an hour. Cold sweats, shakes. I know some people say sleevers don't dump but I would like to know what else it could be called. Now when I want an icream i have a skinny cow (yum) or TCBY. McDonalds plain ice cream would be healthier i would think, its a type of yogurt custard. My town also has a couple frozen yogurt places but I don't enjoy any of those flavors.

It's all about portions and moderations. If you want some ice cream, get a small amount. Usually If I get it into my head I want something I say, if I want it tomorrow still I will get it. Sometimes I eat it, usually I won't.

      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.
