Nestle real dairy ice cream 50 % less fat

SOOOOO GOOOD.  I thought I would notice the change to less fat , but nope.  It is very creamy and great with saskatoons. mmmmm   Don't waste your money on ONE - A - DAY gummy vitamins there is only 7 vitamins listed in them and not in very high quantities.  No minerals. 

Does it have lots of sugar?  Is it okay for us?

Just checking...I'm three weeks post-op and always trying to figure out the dos and don'ts.

Thanks!

Most gummies are useless. Barb- what kind of supplements and vitamins are you taking . I would imagine you need to take more because of the DS .

I don't know if the ice cream is good for new patients or its sugar contents sorry about that, i just know it taste good. lol   \ rainyone my vitamins I take were recommended by my dietician I take Swiss natural TOTAL ONE for women, Calcium citrate with vitamin d3, iron, and folic acid. Also trying to use beneprotein in coffee etc.  I have to try to get in 90 grams of protein a day  (thats tough to do) . I have been eating deer steak and smoked goldeye for snacks, crab legs are very high in protein too ahhhhh! there is an up side to life  lol

 I hope you are taking more than "normal" doses of the vitamins since you won't absorb them . I've heard some scary stories about vitamin deficiencies after rny or ds . Even my 3 month blood work was wonky and I need to repeat it and I don't malabsorb. Ive done se interesting research in dry vitamins vs wet and stuff. Interesting stuff . 

Just curious why you go for the reduced fat ice cream since you don't absorb the fat anyway? Does it affect you badly?

Lately I've been going for the " good stuff" since I eat do little of it I'd rather it be " real" unless it has too much sugar which makes me feel crappy 

I am taking 4 times the amount of calcium, regular doses of everything else though.  I am going for blood work this week, so I will see how things go.  Also have one more appointment with dietician at end of month.  I tried the low fat ice cream because sometimes i get very gassy from ice cream or whip cream.  I find certain ice cream doesn't bother me like dairy queen ice cream.

cool. Good you are getting blood work . From what I read most times you need to take lots of vitamins to compensate for the malabsorbtion from DS.

My bloodwork was a bit wonky ( low vitamin d which leads to low serum calcuim and parathyroid hormone. ) I need to get repeats and start tracking the trends.  It's funny my procedure has no malabsorbtion but it is hard to get all the vitamins you need in small amounts of food!
