a little late...but welcome to bandland Green!!!! :clap2:

Sounds like you are doing well; keep it up!

I also like Ensure (chocolate!); that is my Breakfast...I have it with Protein powder (more chocolate) mixed in for that extra zip of protein; sometimes I'll also blend in a bananna.

So today I went shopping for food, eh. More Gardenay Soups and some yogurt as well. I don't actually have much of a sweet tooth, I am more of a salt and garlic kinda grrl, so I got some tzatziki which is yogurt Greek style - lots a garlic and minced cucumber. I am very happy! I also got lo-fat yogurt with chocolate in it. Little yogurt puddings. I am saving those for when I run out of the tzatziki.

Thanx, Neenagh, for the welcome.

Yep guys, I love baba ghanoush and hummos and all those lovely garlicky spreads. I also love that Mexican one made out of mashed avocado, guacamole, and I love a really good, fresh salsa. And I love raita which is an Indian yogurt and cucumber salad. I was thinking that maybe I could eat this stuff during my stay in mushie-land. I sure am enjoying soup-ville after that first week. :hungry: For some reason I can't stop talking about Soups. :help:

MMMmmmmmm, Maria, you have to try this stuff!!!! I find it at Zehrs, in the department usually by the deli, where they have imported cheese and spreads and stuff. If you ask the deli girl she'll find it for you. Just right it down, if your not sure how to pronounce it. It's to die for!!!:hungry:

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
