What is your food weakness, (demise)?



Recommended Posts

I go through phases. I can't really say what is responsible for the phase like my monthly cycle or anything, they just happen. One week I'll be salty snack crazed and I can't stay away from things like Cheetos or potato chips. Oh my.... chips and salsa, especially queso just drive me wild. Then the next week it'll be Cookies. Then yet another week will be candies, like chocolate candy, jelly Beans, Gummy bears, etc. Oh God! I've got a multi-personality appetite! Maybe I need a shrink..

lMAO!!!! I can just see your facial expressions as you guys type your "demises". I see your eyes, closing.....tongue licking your lips and hands rubbing together as you describe it.

SLAP!

I have been on my liquid diet for two weeks now and I have to say that right now, my dog's rawhide bone is looking pretty good. :dog::heh:

Caffiene and Dove ice cream bars. I'm less than one week post op and I was given one at work today. I couldn't say no. I ate it all...milk chocalate with vanilla ice cream. It went down fine! Probably wasn't too good for me but I think my body REALLY needed something more than Clear Liquids. I've been getting bad headaches. Probably from my caffeine addiction. I haven't had real food or caffeine since 4-19-06. I hope I start getting more used to this real soon!!!

:faint: It's been 2 weeks tomorrow, post op for me. I haven't had ice cream, caffeine or anything solid for 2 straight weeks. Im not saying I'm doing great or feeling great about some hunger pangs I get while I cook, but Im starting to get used to the idea that Im not eating food.< /p>

Dr. Rumbaut gave me nice imagery. He said, "Treat your new belly as if it was a new born baby's belly. Drink only liquids and wean it on food, progressively." Something to that effect. Not verbatim.

Anything made of chocolate. I am addicted and it is a CONSTANT battle daily to not eat it. I usually end up giving in and having a small bit each day. Alot different to the family block I ate daily pre banding.

I used tolove french fries too, but I am so thankful that my band wont let me eat them now, I have tried a few times and each time i end up PBing...so no more for me.

      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.
