Holy Lactose Intolerance Batman!

[neekoal 37]

I was sleeved 12/13, on mushy phase just now. So I am back visiting relatives for the holidays when they decided to go out for ice cream. (they don't know I had this type of surgery) In my previous life I had a deep, eart shattering love of ice cream. So I decided I'd have a few spoonfuls with the fam....that can't hurt!

Um yea....my body most assertively issued a "No ma'am" to me within 5 minutes of eating 4 spoonfuls.

I'm sorry new tummy, it won't happen again, yes I know your the new boss.

Sincerely,

Your Humble Servant Neekoal

I pray my tummy will let me try dairy again in a few months. :-/

It probably will. I'm guessing it may have been a reaction to the fat / richness than just the dairy.

See how you go further down the track.

I have this issue already but its only certain ice creams that give me problems. So I agree it may be the reaction of certain ones.

Good luck it may improve down the line

I feel your pain! Been there, u couldn't even eat a sliver if cheese without getting sick. However, I'm almost 10 wks out and although I can't tolerate ice cream or milk, I can tolerate most cheese in moderation. Good luck!

Well this isa type of syndrome which could be managed only by limiting the dairy products. You can go for plant based milk products if you want, like having soy milk, hazelnut milk etc. Foods like yoghurt would also be beneficial in your case. Just try to overcome the intolerance by consuming yoghurt. It would be good for your body.

Thanks

Thanks! I do seem to be able to eat yogurt without issue so that is good. I couldn't tolerate drinking milk so I did switch to soy yesterday for shakes. Someone told me the almond soy is better then the Soy brand , did you guys have some advice on which is better?
