Just out of interest, wonder if you could share your normal daily eating habits that keep you where you are.

Breakfast cant normally eat so start the day with a latte.

lunch is normally Soup and maybe a yoghurt

dinner is normally some cassarole with a bit of potato/pumpkin and veg.

snack, my daily treat is some ice cream.

I never eat biscuits, rice, Pasta or unminced meat

I have a muscle milk light as soon as I get up.

Breakfast (around 10) is either whole grain cream of wheat with a tsp of sugar free jelly and a cheese stick or a breakstone's cottage cheese doubles.

lunch (around 2)is either left over dinner from the night before or a lean cuisine

dinner (around7)is about 4-5 oz of chicken or beef with 1/4 cup of rice and veggie

If I get hungry before bed, I'll do 1/2 cup fat free ice cream or a muscle milk or cheese stick.

I have an 8oz Protein shake when I first get up.

9:30am - 1/2 cup of Protein plus total Cereal with a tiny bit of skim plus milk.

11:30am - 1 cheese stick

12:45 - 4-5 oz white chicken in a can with FF mayo

5:00pm - 5-6 oz chick or fish with veggies

sugar free Ice pops in between meals and after dinner.

I only do ice cream once a month. To many calories for me.

Breakfast choices: an egg flip, or some sort of fruit smoothie (never use Protein powders), porridge or muesli, occasionally an egg on toast

Lunches: salads (mixed salad veg, usually with a can of flavoured tuna or chicken), some pine nuts and olive oil and salt and pepper as a dressing, Soups such as ministrone, zucchini and leek, lentil, vegie etc, sometimes I make a sandwich (I like the bread toasted) and have tuna and salad in it, a regular weekend treat is a good old meat pie and sauce!

Dinner: lots of meat and 3 veg meals such as chops, mashed potato and pumpkin and vegies, roasts, we do eat Pasta, Soups, casseroles, curries, the list for dinners is much more varied than for breakfasts and lunches. Lots of barbies in the summer time.

I do eat rice and Pasta, try to make it the brown variety though.

I stay away from sugar basically - biscuits, cakes, muffins.

Daily treats will be somethiign like a cappucino (and as you know, that's not such an indulgence here in Australia, its just milk and coffee, not milk, coffee, Syrup, whipped cream etc), and I do like a glass of wine at night. Very occasional treat is a Baileys.

I'm generally eating 1800 calories a day or so.

Most days I'd run about six kms or go to bootcamp or boxing.

I didnt realise that USA made them that way, no wonder it seems indulgent. I cant function without mine (perhaps an addiction that I should deal with).

I don't 'not' eat Pasta, rice or meat because of the calories but because my band hates them:blush:.

      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.
