So I did it, I gave in to chocolate. Damn Easter bunny!!! Well I defiantly don't dump. Boo... I told my husband that candy/ sweets are just not allowed to be in the house. I can go out and not think about it twice, but if it's sitting in my kitchen I can't stop thinking about it. Bad me! I guess this is where I accept my mistake and move on and try to not let that happen again, but it's so hard to forgive yourself sometimes.

I too had chocolate on Easter and didn't dump, but Tuesday I had 3 bites of cheesecake and I dumped big time. I was in horrible pain for 2 hours and all I wanted to do was throw up. I got the shakes and started to sweat and get dizzy. I got upset and confused and all I could do was crawl up in my bed and wait it out. It was so horrible I swore I'd never have another piece of anything sweet again. They weren't kidding when they said it would cure my sweet tooth. The sweets just aren't worth that torture.

I am 3 and a half weeks post op and haven't had the guts to try anything sweet. The way people describe dumping....I couldn't deal. I definitely wouldn't have dared tried soda...that's a no no for the rest of my life! Easter was so hard because my daughter and niece made the damn cupcakes and omg! It took everything in me not to power one down lol....I made it through though

I was in a cab yesterday and the driver is one of my regulars. She had the surgery 4 yrs ago and proceded to tell me how she drinks sodas eats chocolates and Cookies and doesn't dump.....I was sorta mad...like why put your body through all of that just to resume the same old habits? Its a lifestyle change...on the other hand I think I was envious bc I can't eat that anymore...Maybe I could but as painful as dumping sounds I wouldn't even try!

i totally agree anjela! why would anyone go thru this just to resume their bad eating habits. i wonder if she realizes how much more she would loose if she didnt eat all those bad things. i dont even crave sweets or soda....i look at them and think " thats the old me". and like u, even if i did want them i wouldnt even try out of fear of getting sick. its just not worth it.

I think she was trying to re-assure me that I would be able to eat again someday but even when I can you can bet I won't be eating like that! #Disturbed

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

    • buildabetteranna

      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
