crystalloveball 9 Posted May 10, 2016 On my pre-op diet, I survived on sugar-free popscicles. (I've always loved popscicles). For post-op, I bought a snow cone maker. I figured it would be much cheaper than buying so many popscicles regularly--with it, all I need is ice. I ordered sugar free Syrup with it, but I won't do that anymore (it's too expensive); after that is gone I will use the bottles with a mix of Crystal Light. I'm 10-days post-sleeve, and the snow cone machine has been a great investment. It makes me feel like I'm eating solid food, but what it really does is hydrate me. I eat a lot of my Water in the form of snow cones. I even like them flavorless. I'm a texture-eater, so a liquid diet sucks. it's not fulfilling to me. Anyone else post-op but need to sink their teeth into something? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KindaFamiliar 3,867 Posted May 10, 2016 Great idea @@crystalloveball I chewed ice when I was at that stage... I found it was a GREAT help with the head hunger and tricking the body into thinking it had eaten... I hope others find this and do the same... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
