My family is going to play putt putt tomorrow for Mother's Day and will get ice cream after. I wonder if I can have a little sf soft serve? I had rny last Monday, May 8. Thoughts?

With all the respect in the world, do you really think that's a good idea? You need to change your mindset and ice cream, even SF ice cream 6 days from surgery is counter to every reason you had surgery. Reread your plan from your surgeons office and remember why you just had major surgery. Plus, is it really worth it? How good is SF ice cream anyway. ?

Are you the mother being celebrated with this putt putt ice cream excursion? Maybe everyone else can skip the ice cream in your honor since it's your day, instead of you having to feel tempted by stuff that's not on your plan!

Well I've never had SF ice cream, so I don't know how good it is. I know my boys haven't liked seeing me "not" eat anything and thought they'd like to know I enjoyed something on Mother's Day, even if I can't enjoy lunch with them.

Everyone is different, I had rny back on April 23 and I had a half a cup of breyers no sugar added vanilla ice cream and no problems, my doc said to just experiment to see what I could handle or not. I have no problems with anything I have tried. She said to not ignore your cravings, onceI had a little , I was fine. My program dropped the puree diet so I am now on soft foods and on the 22nd will be going on reg. I say go for that little bit of ice cream.

For me personally, I have a hard time with sugar free foods because of the sugar alcohols. Everyone is different though. The key is moderation!

Well you'll probably be ok try a few bites slowly to see how you handle it...maybe stay near the bathroom just in case [emoji5]; . What worries me a little is your 6 days out and while ice cream is soft it does have a consistency so that can feel weird at first so be careful!!!

I just had a 1/4 cup of Halo Top. I was told I could have it. SF pudding is a no go for me. It was a nice change from shakes. Now to see how I tolerate it.

I should add, I'm five days out and on full liquids.

      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.
