RESULTS VISIT!!

6' 1"  wow.  And I thought 5' 8" was tall. 

I have been an ice cream junkie for years, but I'm doing great without it.  Eggface, here on OH, has recipes for protein ice cream.  Tonight I used my new ice cream maker to make my own protein ice cream with:

2% Greek yogurt
lots of strawberries (they're in season!)
Unjury unflavored protein powder
Benefiber (yeah, I need this stuff!!)
Splenda
All whizzed in my food processor

Good stuff!! 

Hi Jordan,

I hope that you will enjoy your holiday fare and while for some, they will never be able to have ice cream again, to be honest, the overwhelming majority can. You won't be able to do this early on and if you are able to tolerate sweets or fats, you will have to learn to do so in moderation. There were so many things that I thought I would not be 'able' to have again, that I can. This is a double-edged sword, as you can imagine. Personally, I am grateful that I am able to enjoy some. I make it a rule that I have to take care of business before I indulge. That means that I have to get my allocation of protein for that 'meal' or snack before I can indulge and I 'plan' it in. Even at 2 years out this is a big help because I 'load' with lean protein first, then only have a little room for an 'indulgence.' That said, this way there is 'nothing' that is totally off limits for me. I am still a work in progress, but I'm learning.

Wishing you all the best as you go forward in your journey.
