On a specialized diet regime due to past problems. None since this diet was adopted. I am restricted to coconut milk ice cream to keep stomach issues at bay. Sometimes hard to find, but good when I get some. Have no stomach cramps or issues since I started about 8 years ago. I feel empowered taking care of myself and sticking with it this long. I also feel healthy and have energy. I like the vanilla ice cream (or chocolate chip) that I can eat. I buy it occasionally, since it only takes 2 or 3 days to finish the pint I buy. Cool, yummy, refreshing and keeping me aware and paying attention to myself and my health.

Hi, @cherilynhack interesting you have no problems with coconut milk ice cream, as it’s a known irritant for some people causing more issues, especially for sensitive stomachs and IBS. It’s also got a high fat content to it. Glad it’s working for you. 👍

My summer treat is to have lots of blueberries that I pick myself.

That’s great! @MicheleB226335 I love freezing them on a sheet pan, bagging them, and storing in a freezer bag for a great pop-in-the-mouth snack. Incredibly good for us too.

We love coconut based ice-cream, too. I like to make it in my Cuisinart ice-cream maker, & can incorporate even chocolate with mini-chocolate chips. I use low-fat coconut milk in my homemade.

Enjoy your summer!
