does anyone feel that they r not eating enough? i am only 2 weeks out but feel i'm not getting near enough food in me. I can eat maybe one or two spoons of cottage cheese and thats it. sometimes I have a little unsweetened applesauce. i can drink about half of a protien drink so I try to do that a little more often.

also, i can't stand plain greek yogurt. does anyone have any suggestions on how to help the taste.

thanks,

Tina

Your still relatively new so it is not worry some that you are able to consume such little amounts. Little by little your body will allow you to eat more.

Do you keep a food diary?

And what foods have you been cleared for?

Can you add SF fruit preserves with splenda to taste to the yogurt? It's seriously delicious- I have had strawberry and blackberry- Smuckers!

You could try adding some honey or sugar free jam (seedless and smooth) to your greek yogurt until you can have it with fruit.< /p>

I'm eating about the same you are sweetie. It's very normal. My NUT says that we are not going to be able to eat anything we will be eating in 6 months and that should be about the size of a CD. Wish you the best. Today I hit my 30 pound mark on my weightloss was so excited. :D

I think as long as your getting your Vitamins and Water in you should be ok. I had a hard time too trying to get more than 500 calories in the first several weeks.

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
