I think if my surgery was any longer I would have gone in at 230 on surgery day instead of 201. I also started my pre op diet early to get the food funeral weight off

I waiver between being proud of myself and being ticked off ay myself regarding food funerals. I was being very good when i could have done it, now Im on liquids and wish I could! Shopping is tough...seeing all the old not so healthy foods that i will not be having a taste of for a very long time. I'm sticking to straight liquids because my doc is very firm about cancelling if he thinks the liver is not in A-1 shape. He takes no risks so I am walking the straight and narrow! The fact is, Im making a big batch of nutritious chicken broth for post op today and would kill to be able to chew a big hunk of that chicken! :sips MORE water:

I'm almost one year out and I can almost eat half of a regular size burger with cheese lettuce pickles Condiments all my OLD style things I ate before the sleeve. Depending on what else I have eaten that day and how recently I've drank anything. If you wanted an actual REAL PERSON answer and not someone who's thinking they are NEVER going to eat a burger again! Geez people to each his or her own!

As long as you have a diet coke with whatever you are eating, it's all good because the diet coke cancels out all the other calories.

      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.
