I am addicted to Skinny Cows!



Recommended Posts

Hello, my name is Sally and I am addicted to Skinny Cows! Before the band, I could eat a box of Edy's ice cream without effort and go back to the freezer to find out if there was more. Now, I've found the Skinny Cow! I usually don't go over my calorie limit, but I've noticed that I do it with the SC. I decided that this wasn't what I got the band to do...so I don't have any SC in the house. Last night, I had a great craving for them, but made another choice. Bandster hell and SCs do not make a good combination for me. Do you have any of those foods you eat too much of?

I could eat a gallon of costco vanilla ice cream in one sitting, it's the best vanilla I've

ever eaten, but then my weight loss would stop and my diabetes would return and

the $60000 spent would be wasted, so I choose not to. This is my deliberate choice,

I've decided I would rather be 100 lbs lighter than I was. To accomplish this, I have

decided to give up my beloved pizza, beer, and all of the other comfort foods I love.

This wasn't an easy decision, when I see my friends and family enjoying foods I want,

I have to reaffirm my choice everyday. It's difficult, but I'm doing it day by day.

I love skinny cows. Wish I'd never bought that first box. I don't eat one every day but I'd love to!

I was addicted to skinny cows too. I quit buying them for now.

Everyone seems to have their " trigger foods". All we can do is keep them out of our houses. Usually the triggers are some kind of carb snack, so I find that if I keep the carbs low, the cravings stay away.

        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
