Food Comercials!!! WTH!!??!! Ban Them!!!



Recommended Posts

So have any of you ever noticed that 3 out of 5 comercials are for some type of fast food or unhealthy food? no wonder were all "fluffy" They should ban food comercials just like they did cigarettes!!!! Sorry for ranting but really no wonder our society is obese with the bsession we have for unhealthy foods! ...Getting banded tomorow..heres to changing the obsession!

It is shocking how many commercials are for fast food/junk food. They don't really bother that much but the "brownie bites" don't know their name that are "found in the refrigerator section" those are just evil.

The first thing I did when I saw the title of this thread was lol. I kind of block them out whenever they come on - except the redlobster ones. However, one of my weaknesses since surgery has been the food network. I am addicted to watching the stuff I can't really eat anymore. I guess I get my fix that way.

My situation is very progressive. I found a lot of information needed and hire a consultant for my exercise regime and diet. I would think next time I will see my accomplishments.

We should take away all of those food channels because I'm sure most of those shows make unhealthy food. They should also ban those birth control commericals because they are teaching are children sex!!!!!

Seriously. This is so silly. Commericials didn't make you fat.

yeah i know comercials didnt make me fat, im not a moron...duh.

But if thats all we see on tv arent you more likely to want to eat that than grilled chicken breast....personally id take the brownies over a saled any in my past. Im just saying that if we are monitoring other things that make you unhealthy than why not food/processed food. Also, i was on my 3 day clear liquid die when i posted that. so obviously i was a little more observant to the food comercials because i was starving

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
