I feel like I could totally handle regular foods but I don't want to go backwards in recovery. Just like any injury or surgery. Sometimes we feel great but can over do it and end up several steps back. I am afraid if I eat mashed potatoes or toast it would injure my stomach pouch and be worse off. So I am sucking it up and sticking to drs orders. You can do it. You will have ups and downs, I know I have. I've gotten ticked off at my family for eating regular food and enjoying them near me. Now the go in another room to eat. I just keep reminding my self it's a marathon and I can't just cut across the park and be a winner, I have to run the entire course and some parts of that course will be worse than others. Wait to add new stages until you are cleared or until the time frame is appropriate not just because you feel great and "think" it is time and you can handle it. In my humble opinion. :)

I was sleeved September 27th and I have eaten egg, shrimp, salami, cream cheese and regular cheese, chicken, turkey, ham, pot roast, pepperchinis, olives... I didnt go on pureeds, I have tolerated everything too well except chicken 1 time. I gained five pounds eating this stuff after 4 days :( SO not worth it. I found that just because I cn tolerate it does NOT mean I should eat it. Now Im on strickly fish and eggs.< /p>

I'm so mad. My belly tolerates stuff but was told today NO! Saturday I can start purée. I don't get why everyone's diet is different when the surgery is the same!

I have the same issue - I can drink and drink any Fluid and my stomach has yet to feel full at all. I was sleeved 10/11/12 (5 days out). What IS up with that? Makes me worried that I will not feel restricted with solid food......

      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
