Happy Easter, how did you do with food and candy???



Recommended Posts

I had 2 slices of ham (cut off the honey baked crust and that practically killed me). I had a spoonfull of greenbeans and one deviled egg. I brought my candy into work today so I an watch everyone else eat it and let it stick to their butts! I am quite proud of myself.

I had to do TWO Passover dinners and one Easter, all in one week! I only have 1cc in a 4cc 10cm band and have very little restriction. So I'd say I didn't do very well. I didn't gain any weight, but also have not lost any weight in about five weeks. I think I need more fill, and fast!

I did just fine. I had 1 small slice of ham, about 1/4 cup of the most yummy potatoes ever, and a nice green salad with fresh oranges. Desert was a small peice of devine lemon mirange pie. I had one chocolate egg, about the size of a jelly bean. I was hoping it was one of the malted milk kind, but no luck.

But then again, the band isn't a diet, it is a lifestyle.

I did okay. I dont have much of a sweet tooth so I actually didnt have any candy or desert all day. Had a Protein Drink for Breakfast. Our Easter meal was a deep South Texas version... so I had 2 slices of BBQ brisket, some pinto Beans with a spoonful of Mexican rice, and some guacamole with 3 tortilla chips. Sunday evening my DH took me to South Padre Island for dinner and I had 3 HUGE oysters on the half shell with 3 crackers. (and 2 margaritas)!! I did pretty good when I think about all the things I DIDNT put on my plate, lol!!

I did ok with the food, but I over indulged on Easter eggs. I really didnt eat anything else but chocolate ALL DAY. Back on track today though and it will be ok, there will be times like this...like vines said, not a diet, a lifestyle change.

I just started Nutrisystem on Friday and I did perfectly all weekend. If I had had my band, I would have endulged a bit. But without my band, I can not even eat 1 bite - I would go into "binge" mode.

So, I'm pretty pleased with myself.

      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.
