What is your food weakness, (demise)?



Recommended Posts

This thread seems particularly cruel tonight, as I continue my pre-op diet!!!

What I will miss the most.....french fries....Almond Joy candy bars.....

and the fresh homemade cinnamon rolls with cream cheese icing my neighbor makes all the time. I want them all...right now!!! But I think I will just have a bottle of Water so I can run back & forth to the bathroom all night long!!!

We fly out Sunday, surgery on Monday!!! WOOOHOOOO!!!!!

I always turn to carb foods like cakes, Cookies etc. But those foods per se are not such a problem for me, I can resist them usually but its more about being in the situation where they're the easy choice. Like being disorganised, getting caught out at lunchtime with no healthy food on me like fruit, eating on the run etc.

That and easy crap for dinner like Pasta for the same reasons, no time to cook a meal, not having done the grocery shopping etc. If I control my life better my food choices are good, if I have healthy choices available I dont crave the junk or choose it.

I have a few. These are the foods I love, crave and have no control over:

1.Chocolate. Not chocolate ice cream or anything else. I'm talking pure solid milk chocolate candy.< /p>

2. mashed potatos. Creamy, salty buttery goodness.

3. cake and cupcakes. From scratch. Not a box. Home-made or a really good bakery.

4. macaroni and cheese and any kind of Pasta dish.

5. My famous huge warm from the oven chocolate chip Cookies

Right now I'm on a kick of chocolate glazed donut holes from Wal-Mart (their brand). It seems they jump into my mouth throughout the day.....those little boogers stalk me. :heh:

I'm usually a huge fan of a grilled hamburger with cheese and then add some FF's. We've gotten better and started grilling potato wedges. Cook the potato in the microwave & cut into wedges. Spray with your favorite butter spray (we like Parkay spray) and then sprinkle with some Mrs Dash. They are quite yummy and healthier than regular FF's.

Ice Cream, chocolate, (never cared for chocolate until recently, I think it's because it goes down soooo easily), and those white cheddar puffs by UTZ, OMG, they dissolve in your mouth and anything with Ranch dressing.

I love donuts, unfortunately, but fortunately, no bread products for me :omg: the thought of eating bread or a donut.

      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.
