I want food so so badly...it's ridiculous. I'm hungry and can't figure out what will fill me up long enough to hold me. It SUCKS. I find myself wanting to eat every 2 hours or so. sad.gif

Any ideas to help?

So far today I have had

2 Protein shakes

32oz of Water

16 oz of iced tea

12 oz of coffee

1 cup of Tomato Soup w/ Protein powder

1 cup of butternut squash Soup.

1 sugar free popsicle

I'm going to grab another 32oz bottle of Water out of the fridge. I can drink 3-5 Protein Shakes per day so I've done 3 (the Tomato Soup w/ Protein Powder counts as 1 of them) Maybe I'll do another this afternoon before dinner...which will be more soup w/ Protein powder. I'm not sure what to do sad.gif other than watch movies and drink water and sleep. 4 more days right?

Not feeling so desperate now, threw some Protein powder and a crystal light packet into my 32oz of Water. Still have to make the kids lunch treats for the week (home made granola bars) so used to snacking on the seeds and chocolate chips, maybe I'll just have my oldest make them with supervision instead of me....

I was allowed as much as I wanted of sf Jello. There were days when I ate the whole six pack in addition to all the other liquids but I needed it!

lol - the whole six pack- like they are these big things- you cracked me up with that- but maybe I am just tired- lol

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
