Was the broccoli raw? I've not been able to tolerate broccoli unless it's a bit over cooked since I began to resume my "new normal" diet...

Sincerely sorry to read of your incident...hope you are feeling no ill effects.

Take good care...

Broccoli and cauliflower have been 2 of the worst for me about getting stuck. I suggest really making the broccoli tiny and smaller bites. I also sip a little Water to aid in rinsing the tiny balls down.

Poor thing! I can't eat any fiberous veggies ever! Even if they are cooked down to nothing :( I have to stick to green Beans (only french style) cooked carrots and peas :( Nothing else works for me...not even if i peel them

Pretty sure the brocolli and cauliflower is trying to kill me.... I had a small veggie platter, with raw veggies.... now it feels like i am dying... like little knives are stabbing me .... I guess lesson learned, no more raw veggies for me... I am 7 months post op

Even at 4+ years, I still have trouble with raw veggies! And yep, we do get that reminder to chew to smithereens when we have those stuck episodes don't we!?!?

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
