Sounds quite delicious. . how do you prepare your eggs in the morning? I find myself doing 2 eggs scrambled more frequently than not. . and I like to dab a little salsa and low fat sour cream on them. . it's quite yummo!

lunch I had about 1/2 cup refried Beans (Nutritionist says I need to get more carbs/calories in diet and suggested this. . . I let it happen cause it was good)

dinner I'm probably going to grill up a 3oz salmon filet with some lemon herb spice, with a small salad if I can handle it.

I must try your taco salad tho, that sounds quite good!

Also, it's inspiring to know you're sticking this out even unfilled. . you should be proud of yourself! You're doing awesome!

For Breakfast I had a sandwhich round with cheese Tomato lettuce and 45 cal cotto lunchmeat.

For a snack I had celery sticks and three dill spears, dipped in habanero mustard!

Tonight I will have salad and chicken using lipton onion mix and some Soup (new recipe).

If I have another snack, maybe some sunflower seeds :w00t::blushing:

And here I was thinking your salmon sounded good. I think that's going to be dinner tomorrow!

I made up my own taco seasoning mix because the store bought tend to have sugar and I watch my carbs very close. This is a good site for low carb recipes. I've made a number of them and they're quite good!

Thanks for the compliment but to be honest I don't see that I have a choice unless I want to go back to being out of breath just walking across the living room! nonono.

Elcee,

There was a show on tv a few decades ago called 'HeeHaw'. Sort of a down home country show that spotlighted country singers. One of the skits they did was called "What's for dinner, grandpa?" and grandpa would say, "Corn pone and honey, ham with red eye gravy and buttered grits" or some such.

      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.
