ice cream....big mistake



Recommended Posts

My daughter celebrated her 17th birthday today. I am 2 1/2 months out. Decided to pass on the cake but to try a small scoop of ice cream. Big mistake! I got so sick to my stomach! It was first attempt at sugar. You live and you learn (the hard way)!

I haven't had surgery yet, so I'm not sure this idea will work... I've seen ice cream that is 1/2 the fat with no sugar. I wonder, if you wait for it to get a little soft, then putting stevia in it & mixing it in, would you be then able to eat a little bit?

I can eat a small amount of hard ice cream, but soft serve or more than 3 bites makes me feel like I'm dying.

I am 4 months out and tried a little frozen yogurt this past weekend. My stomach handled it ok, but I did end up with a little reflux from it. And I did not eat alot, just several bites. Was delish!

oh wow thanks for sharing, I will prob try sugar free icecream and when I do I will try it at home!! I was wondering if sugar was gonna be an enemy. I am almost 3 weeks out and I have not had over 7grams of sugar! Good luck

I am 8 months out and I have a scoop of sorbet every once in a while and I dont have any issues at all but I did not try it until I was like 6 months out.

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
