Blue Bell Ice Cream Hell!!!!!!!!!



Recommended Posts

when i was in college at texas a&m, my lab partner was this country guy who worked at the bluebell factory in brenham.... every week he would come in wearing his work clothes and his bluebell hat... and it had a different color smattering each time... he would point out the flavor splashes on his hat and shoes... and he smelled like ice cream.... different flavors each time....

IT WAS HOT! i would take a man that smells like Cookies n cream over eternity anyday!!!!!!! hahahaha

OMG!!! You are hilarious!!! You should be a writer!!! how about for the Slim Fast or Atkins commercials??? Then Blue Bell would not stand a chance!!!

I am with you too..ice cream is only ONE of the many things I absolutely CANNOT bring into the house.....!!! And won't....ask me in a year....see if I feel the same...if I do....then I consider this surgery a total success!!!....which i feel it is anyway!!!

N*

Who in their right mind at the grocery store came up with this stupid 10 for 10 sale on half the things in the store????? That person ought to be drawn and quartered.......demonic concoction ....... This stuff is addicting. ........ "we eat all we can and sell the rest." ....... just say no to singing cows.

I was so GLAD to see this post. I love ice cream, but it seems to me that since I've been banded, there's an ice cream or a Pringles dealer lingering around every freakin corner I turn. I SWEAR I've probably eaten MORE (in smaller quantities with more frequency) of both post op than I EVER did pre-op. I could go literally months and months without thinking of either...and now....oh HELL no....there they are AGAIN. "hey baby, I got what you need....just a taste sugar, take a lil lick, who's it gonna hurt darlin?"

BOOM - next thing you know I'm turned out on corner working for bowls or cones. I could be a freakin after school special "The Downfall of Dori: How a lick and a crunch led to life on the streets"

Well I finally put my foot down last night after she came home with 10 more. I told her she had to get that out of the house immediately. So She took it to the freezer in the garage. Figures, eh? Well it really is par for the course. I usually have the last word in our arguments. They usually end with me saying, "Yes Dear." :-)

Blue Bunny has sugar free kind made with Splenda. Which is better...but doesn't help when one eats the ENTIRE container. Evil I tell you. Evil.

Ice cream is, in fact, one of the things my Dr. told me to look out for. "It slips right through" he said. Yeeks!!

well chocolate is officially on my evil list. It is evil and aware. I was at a party last night and had on a white T-shirt. Someone mad a cake which had chocolate sauce dripped on it. So I took a very small bite. Pea Sized, in fact. I then went into the main party room and the first thing my wife said was, "So you've been in to the cake!?!?!" Sure enough, there on my white shirt was a drop of chocolate 3 times bigger than the piece of cake I had. It's just not fair....... boo hoo.......:-)

It's that good. We have Ben and Jerrys here and I will admit it is very good also. However you can only get it in the little pint sizes so it never has sold here as well as Bluebell. It kind of ticked off quite a few people here when Bluebell went to surrounding states. I guess some of us wanted a monopoly on the stuff. I guess they won't ventire to extremely far as they deliver their own product with their own trucks. But heck, thise 18 wheelers can leave Texas and be in New York in 2 days these days. So it may show up there real soon. Meanwhile Ben and Jerrys will suffice just as well. Especially Cherry Garcia.

      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.
