Did any of you have any ice cream brands that are low sugar and approved for Bariatric’s?

I make my own "ice cream" like concoction very frequently. Nutritionally speaking its basically skim milk + Protein Powder

Personally I think the homemade stuff is going to be cheaper, healthier, and taste better than any of the store bought stuff.

I do frozen banana ice cream sometimes....you put frozen bananas in the food processor and eat it. LOL If you put some coco and splenda in there, it'll taste like chocolate banana ice cream. Not bad!

I'm not a fan of Halo Top....it has a weird powdery texture that kinda bugs me out. Kinda too sweet, too. (for me) Admittedly, I have not tried all the flavors.

This is my very favorite frozen treat: https://yasso.com/products/bars/chocolate-fudge/

I LOVE these...they taste so good, calories aren't bad and you get 6g of Protein for 80 calories! Much less guilt!

It's also nice that it's 80 calories of naughty that's in a nice little package...so you're not as tempted to overindulge.

Gotta be so careful with this stuff cause there's not much room for junk if you're getting your protein in and paying good attention to nutrition. For some folks, it can be a gateway to even naughtier things. (I am in danger of being just such an offender...so I watch this stuff really carefully)

I like Trader Joe's Cold Brew Latte Dessert Bars. They are not too sweet and only 40 calories

Halo top. There are so many flavors to choose from. I tried the Cookies and cream, which was good, but kinda blah. I added a little Sugar Free Chocolate Syrup and it helped.

I didn't like the Halo top flavor i tried (can't remember which one :o) but it was an odd texture thing for me too. I do like the Enlightened bars --- especially the mint chocolate chip ones but also like the frozen hot chocolate and the sea salt caramel. Mint chip ones are 90 calories/7 g of protein/6 g of Fiber.< a href="https://www.eatenlightened.com/products/mint-chip-swirl-ice-cream-bars" rel="external nofollow">https://www.eatenlightened.com/products/mint-chip-swirl-ice-cream-bars

I got a Cuisinart ice cream maker for Christmas - haven't made anything yet but looking forward to making some of my own sans preservatives...

Rarely if I have ice cream I usually just have a very small bit of the regular stuff. For me that has two advantages:

1 it satisfies me

2 if I have more than a kiddie size I feel very nauseous so I never over indulge.

halo is great, but has sugar alchol so could be an issue if you are sensitive to that.

      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.
