I am shocked you could eat it, my surgery was the same date as you and I am doing an ounce of liquid at a time.
I really do hope you get some good, intensive counseling to help you deal with your issues and not use food as a weapon or a safety device.
How is it that you found out the wife called you a name and in what context? What is your relationship with your husband normally like?
Please seek counseling and put yourself first. Don't give another person power over you.
Hugs!
I'm surprised you didn't have a major dumping issue or stomach upset from the ice cream!
Sounds like you, like most of us, have some head issues you are dealing with. It took me until 10 months out to finally seek out therapy. You're only two months out - my advice is do it now. You will be in a much better place mentally to deal with everything life - and this WLS journey - throw your way.
We're here for you!

If it didn't make you sick in about 15-20 minutes, it isn't going to, which means you are one of the 70% of us who don't dump. AND... now that you know that you don't dump, you don't have that as a deterrent to eating sweets. It s a shame that you lost this so quickly after surgery. I also encourage you to get counseling. The surgery won't help keep you from eating to sooth negative emotions and those of us who are used to doing that (me, for example) really need to work on those "head" issues in order to develop better coping skills and be successful with the weight loss (and maintaining it down the road).
(There is a "late dumping syndrome", but it isnt the same as the sweating, nauseated, shaky, dizzy, heart racing reaction that comes with early dumping.)
