Oh I know your there now buddy.....

Just when I thought it was safe to go back in the Water....

BAM!

Toasted whole wheat with lemon pepper tuna...stuck and slowly passed after a drink....

Felt it slowly lube up and pass on through with the liquids.....

I am 31 days post op and testing the waters now....and it just didnt work for me today......

ME----- 0

BAND-- 1

Note to self, toasted bread is a challenge.

(for me)

Oh yeah, the pain....the scared thought of tightness and well.....I just dont want that to happen again. Didnt throw up....so does that count for 1/2 point? LOL

Toasted sandwiches are often difficult as they involve 2 pieces of bread, try having an open toasted sandwich. I find it far easier to eat an open sandwich as it only has one slice of bread.Plus tuna can be a bit dry as well.

Remember don't give up on a food just because you have had difficulty with it once. Next time you try eating it could be very different.

I have better luck w/crackers. Not quite as portable as a sandwhich, but tastes just as good w/most stuff you would put in a sandwhich.

Yep, you only get a 1/2 point if you didn't slime and throw up. Sliming is the best part of getting stuck.

Here's a little tip: Do NOT drink to get unstuck after you start getting fills. It NEVER works and only makes matters worse.

After good restriction I stay far far away from bread, toasted or not. I can do a few reduced fat wheat thins on a good day.

Yup, i"m on the wheat thin band wagon as well...bread-toasted or not, kills me but i can typically do 4-6 wheat thins with whatever on top without too much difficulty. Welcome to bandland!

I normally have 2 servings of Saltines through my day....usually with tuna and a string cheese. I do well with them for now. I also tried Wheat Thins yesterday....had to make sure I chewed well and eat slow but did ok with those too!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
