It could be worse, right? Before my band I would've eaten a whole bag a day. I think, as long as it doesn't get out of control, a special treat now and then is ok. But if you can't control yourself throw it away, I can't have anything in my house or I eat it. So I don't allow it in...my poor husband. LOL!!

Love it. But not more than Cookies. Horrible, processed, full of trans fats and artificial ingredients supermarket Cookies. We have a brand here called Scotch Finger, kind of a shortbread sort of thing. Dipped in coffee. Morning, noon, night. Six or seven of them at a time (almost 100 calories each). Anytime is the right time for a coffee and a bikkie. Sigh.

Its just a blanket ban for me. I will never be able to eat cookies one or two a day. If I'm going to have them, I've accepted I'm in for a major calorie blow out and planned accordingly around it.

I also love chocolate, I eat it too! I have decided that because I am worth it I will only eat the good stuff!! I buy a bar from Lindt. I allow myself 1 square, let me tell you I savor it.

I have no problem with this as long as I log what I eat in myfitnesspal.

I agree with the person who said I used to eat most of the bar and look for more! thank God for this band, it always make me think....

Between the Kids' Birthdays and valentine's day there has been a surplus of chocolate in the house. Now it is all gone, cuz I ate it!!! But, now I am going to get back on track. I haven't had a fill yet, and I am trying to do this on my own and it is hard. Hopefully I will be getting a fill next month, in the mean time there won't be anymore chocolate in the house!!!!

Life is TOO short to NOT enjoy chocolate! I log my food intake, so I am accoutable for the calories. Takes the guilt away!

      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.
