So I am 10 days out from surgery and while preparing the boy's Easter baskets I had an overwhelming urge for a Hershey kiss! I am on full liquids/soft foods as long as I can tolerate it ok. So I decided to suck on one so it was liquid once I swallowed it. Nothing happened but now I feel guilty because I'm only 10 days out and I already had a small cheat! I know that Pre-surgery I would've ended up eating most of the bag, but still! I think a lot of it has to do with the fact I finally started to feel better yesterday (which was day 9 from surgery). Has anyone else eaten anything they were not supposed to?

I don't think sucking on a Hershey's kiss is going to harm you, just don't make it a habit...

Dude! I just posted almost the exact same thing! This whole chocolate reduces down to a liquid is total bs. It should be solid. Friggen addictive sugar and junk.

I was about three weeks out and was cutting up fresh sourdough at work and totally forgot about my sleeve and popped a piece in my mouth! I admit I had a little panic attack, but I survived. Just goes to show you we still have those automatic impulses that are hard to change after years of just eating anything.

It's sad to see such guilt over a bit of chocolate. With the sleeve surgery we are learning. When I signed up I knew it was going to be a new way of thinking and eating. Like someone said earlier-"I would have eaten the whole bag before surgery". and now 1 little piece there is dread. I'm a little farther out and I try not to deny myself anything, but I know I have been picky about what I will and will not eat. Sometimes it is a bite, and the rest goes to my hubby or the garbage if I'm at work. We gotta work on what works for us and NO beating ourselves up. Good Luck

I had 3/4 a Cadbury egg. Considering I usually eat at LEAST 15 a season, I'm not gonna beat myself up. It was delicious. And I didn't even WANT the rest of it. I call that a success!

      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
