QUICK BIRThDAY QUESTION



Recommended Posts

Hey , so I was sleeved on 2/20 last week yay! And my birthday is 2/28 and my BF had just asked me is there a way we can get u a sugar free low carb mini cupcake ? I was laughing so hard but I did think it was very cute and considerate .

MY question now do u think I can have a scoop of ice cream that is sugar free or something ? Or any suggestions . I would ask my doctor but don't see him till weekend to get JP removed. Thanks

You may have some lactose tolerance issues...some of us do. But yes...I think you can splurge if your tummy feels ok with it...take it slow! Happy early birthday to you!

becareful with ice cream. it is a slider food even if its sugarfree it will probably be high in fat content. maybe just 1 spoonful will not hurt unless you are lactose intolerant then you will feel crappy. happy soon to be birthday.

What exactly is a slider food??

My understanding is foods with low/none nutritional value and can easier be digested by your stomach, leaving it empty again...Like white bread. Whereas a piece of chicken will take your stomach longer to digest, keeping you feeling full longer and provides you with the Protein you need.

Go to a frozen yogurt place and get a sample cup while your bf gets what he wants. Happy Birthday.. Enjoy!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
