I have occasionally made ice cream out of bananas and raspberry, you blend it together, whip it and freeze it. It's good. I know fruit has sugar but come on it's bananas and raspberries. Raspberries from my yard and bananas from somewhere. I live in Pennsylvania, not the best banana growing conditions.
Nor do you.
I agree
Me, too! Man, you and I have so much in common
Gladly!
My point in this is....you are doing exactly what you are mad at us about.
I love health. I love fitness. That isn't going to change. Sorry!
Just because you read on it doesn't mean I didn't. Like you, I also know a lot about health. But, because of our different beliefs in what we should eat, we differ. The difference between you and I is....I don't care what you do with your life in health. But, you are getting so worked up over mine. We can just agree to disagree
Also......

i'm reminded of when paul said everything is permissible, but not everything is beneficial.
i was overweight. then one day, i started making better choices. i've lost 31 lbs. i didn't deprive myself of the foods i like. i still have pizza, fried chicken (hahahaha i typed friend instead of fried at first), and burgers, but i don't have it all.the.time. moderation is key
i'm still considered overweight, but i'm still aiming for healthy

All I know it that I'm in pretty good shape, that I had meat and dairy when I was losing weight, and I'm having it putting on muscle and good weight. And I would question anyone that told me not to lol. It's also common knowledge that certain professional athletes have lost energy and become injury prone after going away from those things(Hello, Arian Foster).
I've talked to shineyourlight many times in the past about fitness, etc. and seen her offer advice to others and it's always been good advice that pointed toward a healthy lifestyle. Maybe not the lifestyle others choose for themselves, but still a healthy one.

Yes! I luv frozen yogurt as much as I luv ice cream, but both have sugar. Soooo... there's that.
i love almonds, if they were more accessible and affordable here... i have in fact tried almond milk, but honestly i could perhaps make that in a blue moon. in fact i wanted to ask others if any have tried to make yogurt w/ it, for those who cannot eat dairy for some reasons. altho to me personally, almonds are not that easy to get and use, just as coconut in all its stages, are. i mean, i hear coconut milk is drank by other ppl in asian countries, for example, but i did not know abt that for a long, long time. i thot it was just for cooking=). then i see more and more recipes of flans and custards w/ coconut milk instead of milk, so i see ppl are doing it.
as to milk, i only remember there is a passage abt goat's milk in Scripture, and would i buy that too if we could. but goat milk producers here are so few, like the nuns who produce pastillas, ube (purple yam) and other sweets. good for those with their own animals cared for at home so they can procure their own fresh milk w/o worrying if they were grass fed or what.

Healthy Choice makes a good frozen yogurt. I don't know the sugar content though. I can eat Dole Whip and yogurt without the stomach pain. Dole is non dairy so if we go to an ice cream stand sometimes I'll get it. Truth be told I don't like ice cream that much. When I had my surgery and they told me I wouldn't be able to eat ice cream anymore, I didn't care. About a year after w were out and I got this tiny kiddie cup I ate about half of it and got really sick, that did it, no ice cream, not worth it.
I've talked to other bariatric patients and a few of them had the same reaction. I can have a few bites of pasta but more than a couple of bites and it hurts, same with bread. I don't miss either one though. You stop craving it and that's good, it is for me anyhow.

Almond milk is a fantastic alternative to dairy. In the past i've used 'Inside Out', I highly recommend it. If you have any issues getting your hands on some, I'm happy to send a few over for you to try. If you're after a source of protein, I would go for straight up unadulterated almonds though, I always keep our house stocked up. It's a great snack.
nice, thanks laura. that wud be nice, but u dont have to. sometimes we do have various nuts at the same time, but the guys wud often consume when fried, roasted, boiled (peanuts) as if there wasnt some if its raw almonds or walnuts, for ex. it is nice to stock up, but i often have to find a way to incorporate in othr cooking so theyd be eaten-). even raisins are ignored, when i was glad enough with a box of sunmaid when we were in school n there was no othr snack.
I've been tested for gluten allergy, along with every allergy (food and otherwise) under the sun. I've tried no dairy, Fodmap, paleo, and vegitarian diets. My dads side of the family all have thyroid and stomach issues (grandad died of stomach cancer)
my one redeeming generic quality is a gene abnormality in my pcsk9 gene. Simply put, my body filters out all cholesterol 24/7
my bad cholesterol was 20, and the avarage level is around 90
i totally get that you want to help and I appreciate that my doctors (specialists and naturapath) have done everything they can at this point. I just try to take good care of myself and trust God with the rest
