Scrambled eggs were my favorite thing, especially with cheese melted on top. I remember having applesauce, mashed potatoes, ricotta bake (like lasagne with no noodles) egg salad, and I still love putting bananas in my yogurt. There are lots of different flavors of single servinge applesauce now...check on the canned fruit aisle. That first bite of food...I remember thinking I'd died and gone to heaven...enjoy!

I am loving baked sweet potato with a little artificial sweetener. I am a southern girl so I love my grits and scrambled egg. chicken salad and egg salad are good too. broiled fish that is soft is also a good choice...even ate at Bonefish with my hubby and brought leftovers home for dinner the next night. Good luck. It really is fun after liquids only.

My favorite mushy was refried black Beans pureed with my stick blender. It's got Protein and Fiber. Put some shredded cheese on top and warm in the microwave.

I also loved me some Cream of Wheat with cinnamon and a touch of brown sugar. I know it has tons of sodium, but I also ate a couple of small cans of Deviled Ham, just a few bites at a time. Also had creamy Peanut Butter, lots of yogurt, and pureed tuna salad.

I blended my food, so i had minced hamburger and turkey meat (fat free of course) , refried Beans, eggs very soft cooked, cheeses, apple sauces, anything but blended with broth, Soups, lentils, Beans, etc. . . sometimes i still do it that way cause my tummy liked it and it goes down really well. . .

      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.
