What Kind Schedule Did You Keep?



Recommended Posts

K I was wondering how you guys keep your Protein and fluids balanced throughout the day with what we eat? I am not on solids yet I am on full fluids still with yogurt and protein shakes...I am hoping some of you will write like a sample menu for a day? I just want to see if I am doing the best I can to get everything in...I know I can't expect to do it all this early but I just want to know if I am making the most of my day...also what is the latest in the day you guys eat or drink? And lastly what are some Snacks you might keep in your purses/bags? Thanks so much!

The example diet sheet my dietician gave me for days 4-11 is as follows:

Breakfast - 1 glass of milk (skimmed or semi-skimmed)

Mid-am - 1 glass of milk and 1 small pot of sugar free jelly

lunch - 1 cup of Soup and 1 cup of milk

Mid pm - 1 small pot of custard

Evening - 1 Protein shake

Supper - 1 glass of milk.

Unlimited Water

It's now 5.10pm in the uk and I am still on the mid pm custard.

I am taking it very slowly.

      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.
