Low-carb ice cream for maintenance stage

[Kooky1 96]

I am not truly planning out what to eat while in maintenance stage since I only had surgery yesterday, but a Facebook pal posted this and I wanted to share.

They have around 5 net carbs per serving because there are 9 grams of Fiber and 5 grams of sugar alcohol.

I'm nowhere near maintenance, but speaking only for myself, I can tell you that sugar alcohols and I are not friends.

And I would rather have one lovely bite of premium, full-fat, real sugar ice cream than all the "lite" versions in the world.

My personal preference is always for the real deal. Now that I have a sleeve,my restriction means I can limit my portions more easily (just now they're ridiculously small portions, but I expect that to change a bit in the next year or so).

This is the way I eat, also. I stay away from Frankenfood as much as I can and stick to smaller portions of the real deal if at all possible. More satiating.

My own experience -- others' mileage may vary --

Ice cream -- of all kinds -- is the crackiest crack food in the whole world for me.

All it makes me want to do is eat more of it.

I have learned to just say no.

I just freeze Protein Shakes and eat like ice cream. Endless flavors..... chocolate banana, Peanut Butter, red velvet caramel, coconut, dreamsicle, "rocky road", peppermint, hazelnut, cake batter, Irish cream, vanilla blueberry, etc....

If you look up The World According to Eggface on the Internet, she has several homemade Protein ice cream recipes as well as numerous other meals and Snacks that are bariatric friendly. I love visiting her site.
