I am also interested. I have to pack my lunch for work, and need some good ideas. Very physical job working on a job site, and always on the go. Not very convenient for lunches.

I'm relying too heavily on Protein bars right now and know I can't do that long term due to the carbs and calories.

I have a refrigerator at work, but a short time for breaks. Would love to have a stash of quick things so I'm not tempted by the evil vending machine! lol

pop top cans of tuna, babybel, mini turkey bites, shrimp, mini pepperoni slices, rolled up slices of lunchmeat, leftover piece of chicken, hard boiled egg, cottage cheese.< /p>

I think every nut is different, because mine told me nuts are a go. Wish they could all just agree lol.

Pepperoni chips!! Take turkey pepperoni and put it between 2 paper towels, pop it in the microwave for 30-60 seconds (watch them because they burn easily), when they come out/ cool they are nice and crispy like chips- bet you can't have just one!! 73 calories and 9.3 grams of Protein in 17 pieces, probably can't eat that many, but half a serving at a time? :)

Jerky, turkey meat balls, chicken nuggets, hot wings, yogurt (carbs really vary from brand to brand on all of these so be careful), sliced cheddar and an apple, shrimp, string cheese, luch meat/cheese rollups, hard boiled eggs... I stick most of these things in sandwich bags as I am running out the door to some event such is the life of a mother of 4 ;-)

      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.
