ICE CREAM!!!!

ok.. How do solve an ice cream craving post op??

Concerned about calories, sugars...etc..

can't eat the sugar free stuff.. has bad effects

I wish I had the magic answer.  How about making a protein shake that is thick and creamy?  I have had partial success with this.  Using chocolate protein powder to help tame the chocolate craving too.  Take 1 cup of milk, 1 scoop of protein powder, I teaspoon sugarfree chocolate pudding powder and blend this well.  Add ice cubes, about 1 cup and blend.  Adjust the amount of ice to the consistency desired.  I am looking forward to trying any other replies you may get too.

I have considered adding yogurt to the above combination as part of the milk, wait, wait.... let me at that blender.

i like to put strawberries, bananas, ice, chocolate syrup and a couple packets of equal and blend on high. tastes yummy and the fruit makes it good for you. just don't go crazy on the chocolate.  vick

A strawberry protein shake made with milk and a few frozen SF strawberries makes a good thick shake. I add a pack of splenda.
I make my chocolate one with ice and SF Davinci chocolate syrup. I keep meaning to freeze some choc. protein ice cubes to blend it with, but forget til I get ready to make one.

There are recipes for protein ice cream on egg faces website. I haven't tried any, but lots of folks seem to like it.
