Today is going to be a real challenge!

Breakfast: oatmeal and home stewed apples

lunch: St Dalfours wild salmon and vegetables

dinner - well, that depends on the menu at the very fine winery where the boss is taking some of us for dinner tonight. I am working hard at keeping my cals low all day, plus I had an extra long walk this morning, just so I can enjoy dinner tonight. Not that I can go wild and eat the menu, but it would be nice to have a taste of mains and dessert, and maybe a glass of wine.

Good idea!! I am 2 1/2 weeks post op so I am in bandster hell right now, but still trying to stick to eating well.

Breakfast--2 egg whites, 1 egg yolk

Lunch--1/2 turkey sandwich on whole wheat bread and applesauce

Dinner--grilled tilapia, and half of a bacon potato with ff sour cream

I didn't add the calories up but from all of the weight watcher days, I know I'm good. Tonight I will either have a ff fudgesicle or yogurt.

Has anyone else ever tried this? I have not had a fill yet so I have no problems eating it. You take 3-4 large apples a little on the tart side, peel, core and chunk them up and put into a gallon ziploc bag. Add 1/2 pkg of sugar free strawberry Jello. close the bag and shake it up till all pieces are coated! Delicious! Satisfaction for that need for both crunch and sweet!

I love eggs hard boiled. To me they are so much more filling than scrambled or sunny side up!

Yes Judy, thankfully I still can after only 1 fill. I was banded 2/14/12 down 15.5 lbs since. Hopefully after my 2nd fill I will still be able to eat anything and everything w/no problems. We shall see:)

I had surgery, for the second time, on March 8. Today I didn't have anything for Breakfast just drank something. I had some egg salad for lunch, and tonight I am having potato Soup. Cannot wait until Wednesday when I can move to more soft foods. Not a big fan of the pureed/mushies.

its snot an easy time after being banded, thats for sure. it certainly does test our will power. lol. this morning i had barley green and one scoop of Protein Drink in 200 mls of water.. it wasnt bad. im thinking that maybe this will be my breakfast, if i can manage to drink it every morning.

        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.

      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
