I'm so scared im eating too much. I can eat quite a bit of fish. Is that normal? It's the one Protein that I can eat more of. And no I don't try to stuff it in. I just don't feel restriction as well. Anyone else find that?

How far out are you?

How much do you eat?

Yes different foods fill me up differently, meaning some I can eat more of than others. 4 ounces compared to 2 ounces.

Was sleeved on 5/21 19 weeks out and I'm not sure but it was a catfish fillet from charlie's chicken restaurant. It was pretty big dk how much for sure. But overall I've realized I can eat bigger quantity of fish. Was wondering if anyone else can too?

I love salmon.But I can eat way too much of it.I dont really fill up on it so now we make salmon patties with all kinds of green,red,yellow and orange peppers with onion in it and I can only eat 3 oz of it.

Soft fish goes down like yogurt for me.But shrimp or prawns are solid and it really fills me up nicely and for long.

Dont worry about it.Test yourself with chicken breast,that will show you quickly how little you can really eat.

Salmon I can eat more of then any other meat.... 4oz instead of 2oz. I have also had albacore that is much more dense and dryer and found that I can only do about two ounces. I just make sure to put veggies with the salmon and I am full, I am sure it is because salmon is such a moist and oily fish that it goes down so easy for me.

A soft white fish definately goes down easier/can eat more, but, it is also very low cal, high Protein and good for you.

      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.
