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?

The same thing happened to me! I'm kind of glad...won't be tempted again, very soon!

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.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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!
