Hello All,

If I was to have a little snack of frozen yogurt does it have to be sugar free?

Appreciate some guidance.

You should be going for no added sugar and reading the label thoroughly.
You are more than likely bound to dump otherwise.

Make sure you read the label because even if it is sugar free (which it definitely should be) milk also has natural sugars and carbs. You will be shocked how much sugar regular yogurt had.

Ice cream/yogurt was a binge food for me and so I won't touch it especially before I hit or come close to goal.

I was told by my RD that sherbet, Frozen Yogurt and ice cream need to be sugar free.. but to check the Carbs/sugar because even though it says no sugar added or sugar free there are still some in the carbs she said any item must be less than 10 grams of sugar per serving... if more we have the potential for dumping.

Enjoy your day, Donna

The best frozen yogurt would be home-made. Mix some natural greek yogurt with some NSA jam or a few squirts of a sugar-free syrup and then freeze it.

Watch out for those sugar alcohols too. They can cause similar symptoms to dumping. I don't dump but I react horribly to sugar alcohols.
