Ok....so this is something small.... I am in my 2 week liquid diet with my surgery coming up on 7-13-11. My BF brought home a mini snow cone machine today from wally world ($20) with some sugar free snow cone syrup! This has been one of the best days of this pre op diet...lol. It's the small things I guess :)

That is a fabulous contraption to have!!!

When all else fails there is ONE food that never makes me feel like my esophagus is going to explode or nauseous -- sugar free ice pops, ices, etc...

Wow, now I want a snow cone machine!!! How cool is that!

oh, that sounds great!! I can't eat popsicles because i have this thing about the sticks, but a snow cone, that would be perfect. I might have to go to Walmart before Monday when my liquid diet starts.

TRUE LOVE! It is the little things that show support and love! You are very lucky! :)

and by the way....the magic bullet I bought makes shakes WAY too foamy (too much burping) so all it is good for is snowballs....just in case you were thinking of getting one.....the Protein just does not work well with it....

Omg!! This makes my friggin day!! I've been wondering if I could have a snowball! My friend owns a stand, I'm in Louisiana, and she said the flavors were sugar free but it still worried me. And I looooove the spearmint and vanilla Orchid Magic one!

      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
