I couldn't agree with you more Royalrags ~ It was hell going through those two weeks, but now that I am 3 weeks post op I see why the surgeon requires it. My mental attachment to food is gone, I look at it in an all different way. This week I started on soft phase of food and boy am I enjoying it, but it doesn't take much to fill me up and give that feeling of satisfaction. How are you doing so far post-op?

Kim I hit my two week post OP today This surgery has been super easy I almost have to check if I got it done but my port is definitely there so I know I did!!! LOL... Today starts the Mushy/Pureed foods I love refried Beans and mashed Potatoes so I think I should be able to survive for the next two weeks adding yogurt etc.. to the mix! I am extremely excited about all the new changes to come! I get my first fill on the 17th what about you?

I am 6:30am in thurs too!

Meanwhile my husband just committed the ultimate atrocity. He brought McDonalds home and then fell asleep so there was a quarter pounder in my living room. There was 4 seconds when I thought "I'm just gonna have it" but insist give in. And I didn't want it sitting somewhere teasing me, and since I'm so mad he brought it home I gave it to the dog. Serves him right.

That is hilarious!!! Bad Dad Dog treats!!! You know I feel your pain I had to go to Miami three days before my surgery for business! There was so much activity at the hotel because of the Championship Win, food and drinks were in abundance and I wanted to CRY!!! So instead I retreated to the room and mixed my Protein drink with water!! I was very bummed!!! LOL

      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.
