Not sure what I need.........



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved on Dec 26 2012. I did very well with what I am suppposed to have for a while, but lately, I have been eating poorly. I want o snack all day, i want breads, I dont get my Protein in. I have been eating chocolate ( It is my time of the month ( sorry)) I drink full sugar tea. I am feeling so guilty about this. For a while I was only doing these things once and a while, but now I am messing up all the time. I also stopped losing weigh this week.

How do I snap out of it? has this happened to anyone else?

Just start the new day tomorrow with your protien drink and then get back to the basics.

Try to remember how far you have fun and what you went through to get your surgery. Do you have support groups in your area to go to and help. That might be something that can help you through the difficult times. Take care and hang in there.

Focus on your Protein first. I think if you stick with eating your protein first 5x a day...you won't really have room for anything else. Protein also gives you the full feeling on top of your sleeve. I think everyone is different. If you can get all the high sugar stuff out of the house, then I think that might help. you probably want to snack all day because you haven't been getting your protein in and don't feel "full"/.

You need to get your Protein in. It will help you feel full, and you won't have room for those other things. Try Snacks that are high in protein instead. I like cheese (Babybel), Jerky and Protein Bars for snacks.

<slap> <slap> Did that help? :P

You can get back on the wagon! You've had your "fun" with the junk, it's time to go back to healthy eating. I know it's hard, but you can do it! Look at how much you've already lost. A support group is a good idea. Remember you control the food, the food doesn't control you.

      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. 🤞
