My tip for my icecream addiction...



Recommended Posts

I have a quick fix for me (finally) for my icecream cravings:cool: .... I have a severe addiction to ice cream and have recently discovered making my own snowcones with sugarfree koolaid. This feels my need for something cold and sweet while saving many many calories and fat grams!! A bonus is that it is an alternative way to get your Water in too! My fav is grape! Just a little hint for anyone needing to get away from the ice cream! While I will still allow myself ice cream on occasion, this will be a quick fix for my need daily.

I eat frozen fat free cool whip. I only eat a spoon full or two but it cures me! Just another idea :-)

Protein Shakes made with tons of ice and extra sf sweetener save me from ice cream. I sometimes add 1/2 a frozen banana or other frozen fruit. I make them with Water instead of milk because adding the milk gets the calories close to a serving of ice cream.

I do that too. banana and strawberries. use frozen yum

I like adding instant coffee to vanilla flavor Protein Drink too. I love coffee!:thumbup:

frozen grapes are yummy

and putting yogurt cup in the freezer leave it out for a couple of min and it is "spoonable"

I have heard that if you freeze those yogurt whips, they taste amazing. I haven't tried it yet but it sounds like a great way to get an ice cream fix AND Protein at the same time.

      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.
