Ok I'm ten days post op, had my daughters 10th birthday today and the wife puts me in charge of slicing the homemade incredibly cheesy and delicious Pizza.. OH MAN!!!!!! Now that was a tough one while I sit here sipping my Protein Shake :( Someday I'll be able to taste that pizza again someday.

Pizza used to be one of my favorites. Though I don't eat normal pizza anymore, I make my own at home and it tastes great. Find a low carb tortilla (Mama Lupe, Mission, or Flatout all have them) and use spaghetti sauce, mozzarella, and top with anything else you like. Pop it in the oven for a few and there's your "pizza." I sometimes use turkey pepperoni. Not the same, but comes real close. Works for me!

I'm 8 days post op, and my family has been so very good to me, except that my husband brought home this gigantic burrito from this authentic mexican food place that we both love. I told him that he could eat it in the bedroom out of my sight! I'm so hungry! I can deal with most foods not being overly tempting, but chocolate and mexican food are too much for me to bear. Though I really just can't wait until the day I can eat something substantial like oatmeal. HA!

I think it is also retraining the brain. I had 2 pizzza's looking me in the face last weekend for about 15 mins. I reminded myself that was my favorite food now I don't eat that. We use to have pizza every Friday night. I can't get back into that old habit. I am 2.5 wks post-op. I am thinking crustless pizza for a treat one day for a special treat. For me is more about the cheese...

Last night I made meatless buffalo tenders with fat free blue cheese - yummy! Just have to be creative!

Good luck all!

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

    • buildabetteranna

      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
