Hi there! Mostly looking for encouragement! On 3rd week and still on blended, I'm not sure if i can have softer foods... Those Protein Drinks make me puke... Craving real food. Mostly salads, healthier stuff... But stuff I can chew!!!

Weight was stalled at 2nd week :-( was very discoraged... So in total i lost 17 lbs... Sounds terrible to me, but i don't have crazy amounts to loose....

I know by my third week I was able to have soft mushy foods (ie yogurt, mashed potatoes, etc). We all have the plateau's but keep following your drs instructions. Make sure your drinking your fluids and eating 3 meals a day and walk. Good luck- keep your head up your doing great!

I'm able to eat everything now 4weeks but romaine lettuce doesn't wanna stay down. I had mash potatoes & that didn't stay down but will try it again. Most days I keep food down no issues but other times I try something different & bam it comes out.

Btw soft food was horrible for me it's like my body didn't want anything. I move on to regular food but it wasn't any better but I got used to it.

I tried potatos this weekend and blaaah, didn't agree with me. It was the worst feeling ever!

I also can't take the Protein shakes anymore and the blended foods---nothing works!!! But i started to lose again, very slowly... But my medium sized clothin from almost 8 years ago fits!!! Snug, but fits!

Keep trying. I had almost 1month of vomiting everything. I just kept trying till it finally stood down. I thought there was something wrong the day I was gonna call my surgeon was the day the food didn't come up.

Alright for the medium clothes fiting you.

        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
