too much ice?

Can it do the stomach and harm by eating a lot of sugarfree popsicles ?

I had loads of those PO and they never caused me any problems

The main thing that might cause a problem is overdoing the artificial sweeteners - some will experience different forms of GI distress from certain ones (which can differ between individuals.)

Thank you Rick. Didn’t think of that . Would you have to have an excessive amount ?

I know this wasn't directed at me, but some people can't even tolerate a small amount of artificial sweeteners. And others can tolerate a little but not a lot.

I didn't think of this, either, because artificial sweeteners don't bother me at all. But they do give some people GI distress - especially sweeteners whose names end it -itol (like xylitol)

Thank you so much Catwoman .Artificial sweeteners have never affected me before - At least I don’t remember them having done , but I have to say , Im not a fan of them , and try to look for ‘safe’ ones , but are any. of them? Im almost afraid to put anything in my mouth after being so ill before and over Christmas, and have no appetite whatsoever, but I know I need to eat somehow . I’m trying find things that will tempt me and have a bit of nutritional value. Not easy !

Sorbital is found in a lot of sugar free stuff can cause diarrhea. This is not good when your working so hard to get the fluids in. Make your own with Protein Water and theres lots of ice cream recipes with Protein premier drinks to make.

Didn’t know about Sorbital always , thank you 🙂 so we can make ice cream that we can have ?? !! 😀

      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.
