I THINK I MAY HAVE FOUND A HEALTHY SWEET SNACK



Recommended Posts

Way too many carbs for me (and not the good kind).

If I want something frozen I will freeze a Greek yogurt and it fills that want for ice cream.

I think that it'd be a horrible thing for me to eat.

I say that because I'm in weight loss mode with a long way to go remaining ahead of me.

I looked over at your starting weight of 277 and your current weight of 130 pounds and I say....."Heck yes.....roll with it !!!"

You've kicked arse and if those are what you want to eat.....then all things in moderation. You've lost 147 pounds.

Only you know whether or not you can eat something like this and not trigger bad eating habits.

Congrats on your weight loss results.

Too many carbs too little Protein. Try Halo top ice cream. Look at eatmeguiltfree.com

Also research splenda, its basically poison.

Thanks for the advice everyone!!!! @@Dub where did you find this info?? I haven't input anything and I'm far from 130lbs[emoji30] my goal is 160-170lbs where I use to be. Only 55lb away[emoji4] I really need to look into this I use my phone to get online so I'm not even sure where to start. But I'll just eat in moderation when I have the sweet tooth. Definitely not the worst choice I'll say but understand there are better ones..

Sounds like that ice cream sandwich is a bad choice then if you are trying to lose. Snacks, in general, may be a bad idea. Just my opinion and I reserve the right to be wrong. :D

Sweets aren't my thing at all, so these wouldn't tempt me. However - Huz absolutely loves ice cream. And he has a problem with Portion Control. He's working with an RD (he isn't a WLS candidate, he has some medical issues which means having to keep his weight down and learn to watch portions) who actually suggested he find something that was pre-portioned that he could enjoy. He buys a big box of the Skinny Cow ones from costco and has one most evenings. They're working for him.

There is a lot to be said for pre-portioned servings in a case like this. As a sleever, though, I wouldn't make this more than the occasional treat, not enough nutrition for the room one would take up. That's the way I think about a lot of things these days, how much room a portion would take up inside a stomach the size of a banana.

      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.
