That's hard with him on the road and you at home... Did that 25 years ago when my daughter was young... Don't envy you! Easier today though with technology... Cell phones, Skype and FaceTime.

What about packing your lunch, the fast food is loaded with fat and sodium not to mention tons of calories. You have done so well from your surgery... don't let this get out of hand. Have you done the 5 day test diet ?? I am 5 months post op but have been reading about it. People that start to put back on the lbs. way after surgery do this 5 day diet to see if their pouch is still small.... check it out. Hopefully I will never have to use it !! I hear the 5 day diet of liquid gets you back on track.

I've heard that too... Right now I'm so stressed about life in general that I'm just taking it one day at a time...

Well so far today... Just the tuna out of the tuna salad ready to eat from Bumble Bee... Then 6 Melba crackers with Brie cheese on top... Going to fix a salad now... Then if we have the time going to BBQ some flat Iron steaks tonight with cottage cheese and a peach for dessert...

I must admit' date=' I'm not just mindlessly eating now that I have to tattle on myself... LOL... I actually think about if I REALLY want that or not now :)

I have to say, I don't know a lot since I'm a newbi, but, your eating sounds ok to me. This is one of my fears that I will eventually gain. How far out are you? I'm one week tomorrow.

      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. 🤞
