Yes and gizzards! But I am thinking those are too tough! I think I have given up - I am stuffed from lunch still.

What's a chicken liver?

Oh yeah, that's the slimy part of the bird that's in a baggie in the cavity with other slimy parts that gets directly given to the dogs to eat!!!

Seriously, KFC serves this? I'm in CA and I have never heard of such a thing. Is it like the In-and-out Burger secret menu?

Can't wait to rock (even if it's only a small portion) of a "Flying Dutchman" again. Yum!!!

I love chicken livers and KFC's are the best. They don't have them here in Cali, but I am from the midwest and used to eat them all the time!!

I would think that they would be really dry and since we can't drink while eating, that might be a problem!

Kelly I was thinking with some gravy - I agree they may be dry too but I was thinking a great source of Protein.< /p>

LOVEEEEE chicken liver. Like it broiled with bacon. Did not know they sold them there! Will have to make a pass. and yes I know it is high in cholesterol......but once in a while sure is a treat!

I love fried chicken livers and gizzards but I don't eat fried food anymore so it's a no-no for me. I've never heard of KFC selling them, though and they certainly don't sell them here in the Detroit area. They do have places here that do sell them, however. I would imagine it would be a good source of protein...BUT... the fat from frying them and the breading would outweigh the benefits to me. If they were broiled like the other person said it might not be too bad. But I would think it wouldn't taste as good, either. You know what I do when all I have are fast food choices and I need Protein is I go to McDonalds. They have a new grilled chicken sandwich and I order it without mayo and just throw away the bun and eat the rest. It's really yummy! I also eat Wendy's chili now and then for a treat. Good choice on the chili!

They sell chicken livers at KFC in the southern states, especially Mississippi and Alabama, where I am originally from. I have not tried here in San Antonio. I love them and gizzards too! You could only hold one or two anyway so I dont think it would hurt to have them occassionally.

There was a restaurant here that used to do that - they called it rumaki I think - YUM

I don't plan to do fried foods either but right now I am getting 200-300 calories a day and being threatened with a feeding tube if it doesn't turn around in 3 weeks. Believe it or not there isn't much breading on them and what there is I would brush off. I was considering a McD's chicken something, my daughter was at work there and it would have been so easy to text her and have her bring me one but chicken breasts don't sit well with me so far so I skipped it.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      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
