Did you feel this way before puréed foods. I ask because some puréed foods do that to me. For example I can not eat mashed potatoes.

As for as Calcium, I use the toffee chews and they are a daily treat. You are not

Limited to liquid.< /p>

A daily dose of Miralax will keep it soft and not cause cramps. Make sure you keep you fluids up

11 Weeks Post Op:

1. I think I am a slow loser and should have lost more by now. (but I'm still THRILLED with the results thus far)

2. I probably eat WAY TOO MUCH cheese. (it is the easiest and most satisfying as of right now)

3. I work with a personal trainer 3x's a week but the days I don't, I do not work out at all.

4. I have had chicken nuggets from McD's. (out of convienence)

5. I'm frustrated with being a size 18.

6. I don't get all my Water and Protein in.

7. I can't wait until I can see my collarbones. :)

8. I am kind of tired most days.

9. This has been the best thing I've done for myself in ages!!!

10. I can't wait to go on the ultimate shopping spree!!!!

Since you are having trouble getting liquids down, try a suppository instead. Believe me, it works!

Ok I wasn't gonna do it for fear of being judged but WTH here goes...

1) I have had some wine

2) I have had some chocolate.

3) I have started smoking again

4) I would kill for a Big Mac with extra sauce

5) I have had anxiety attacks post surgery.

I know, I know. All I can say is this is so much more than I anticipated. I am adjusting but this is a HUGE change. I didn't underestimate the commitment but I didn't fully realize the entire impact. I know I will succeed but obviously not without testing some limits.

I've had a few M&M's a couple of times.......scared to death to touch wine but think about having some alcohol OFTEN!! Were you able to tolerate it well?

      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.
