I can eat 3 Popsicles (sugar free) in one sitting?



Recommended Posts

I'm 6 days out (may 3 was surgery day). I am able to have one - sometimes one and a half Protein shakes each day. It is still difficult to drink Water with or without Crystal Light .... But Popsicles, I feel like I could eat them all day!

Other than this recent addiction to Popsicles, I am feeling like myself again. I went shopping today, walked, and mowed grass.

Anyone else with a Popsicle addiction? I really can eat three in one sitting!

I've got a Popsicle addiction - probably have three or four every day (when I'm not out of them)

This is a great question! The only one i can find that is sugar free (so far) is the Popsicle brand.

Weight watchers makes one that is high in Protein - 5g I believe, but not sugar free.< /p>

Suggestions?

I am 4days post op and and an only tolerate 1/2 a Popsicle' date=' 1 Protein shake and 1/2 can of Soup a day I'm barely meeting Protein goal which is 40g and barely meeting Fluid intake which is 64oz daily

Any suggestions? Or am I doing ok for just being 4days post op[/quote']

I felt similar to you a few days ago. Are you able to keep any Water down? My Dr. says not to push anything. Just keep sipping, sipping, sipping. My protein goal is 60 - 75g a day, i am nowhere close to this.

How are you feeling otherwise?

You are doing great! All the liquids you are drinking go toward you Fluid intake, even the frozen popsicles. As long as you are not taking in caffenine(sp)

its a month since my surgery...but I definitely had a favorite... cushed ice... ate tons of crushed ice with a spoon... lol :) I like popsicles too :) I found a sugar free one at Walmart( believe it or not) its like the old ones when I was a kid... double sided ones... and they have assorted flavors in the pack... pack of 24 for $1.98... sugar free... no Protein in them tho... but the flavors are awesome. grape ,banana... coconut, blueberry, orange, cherry..... love them all... :)

Your only 4 days out and your stomach is still heaIinng. Your doing good! I can relate to your problem, Try sucking on ice chips…that is what saved me (and popsicles). Plain Water, flavored water, warm Water or cold water, just did not agree with my stomach. Protein shakes I loved prior to surgery I could not tolerate. Good luck, everyday gets better! :)

I now drink ice cold water with no problem!

I am almost five months out and still eat them. I don't eat them as much as I did at first (maybe I wasn't getting in as much liquid at that point) but still love them.

I buy the Popsicle brand (they're 15 calories each and taste fine) and the Dreyer's/Edy's brand. The Dreyer's/Edy brand are 25 calories each and a bit more expensive -- but they're SO good. They're not as easy for me to come by, but when I find them I almost have to buy them.

OMG... I don't know if it is the warmer weather or what but I am like a popsicle fiend! I seriously eat 2 or 3 a day!! I used to love fudgcicles but not so much now... I love those Edy's ones too but our local ShopRite has had the popsicle brand ones on sale for $2.27 a box so I stocked up on the sugar free ones!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
