Everything is moderation. I can't eat 2 giant plates like before or even half,but I can have 1/2 cup of something. I just stay away from fried food or have it occasionally but it makes me vomit if I eat it sometimes. Depends. Everyone should enjoy them self. Unfortunely this surgery turn my whole stomach into not liking certain food or smells.

Babygirl- How was the moscato? Did it give you any dumping effects? I am 4 months out and was able to handle the spare ribs but they were really tender! I cant drink soda yet but I sometime will sip a swallow of beer for the belch. Its amazing how we can all tolerate dofferent things! Enjoy!

I am seven months out' date=' and there's NO way I'm eating any of that, Holiday or no holiday. Just saying.[/quote']

This was kind of a mean remark... Ending that reply with "just saying" doesn't justify it's intent. We are all here to support one another... NOT attempt to give someone a guilt trip. Just saying.

You never even bothered to ask what the ingredients were before passing judgment. All of the actual meats are part of the diet. At least ask how it was prepared, low carb, low fat, low sugar sauces for example. People do that all the time. The drinks were diet... My doc said diet soda was fine just make it flat and not often. Why not ask all these things before jumping to conclusions. Let's just support one another. Cause we ALL have been through a lot...

Your right. I wish I can handle all that good stuff but I can't. Surgery affects everyone differently. Imagine can't eat chicken or pork. Oh boy but bring on the steak yummy!

Everything has gone well, thank God. It was only like 6oz and I drank it reeeeeaaaallly slow. The 2oz of soda....no problems either. I just needed to taste something besides Water and the stuff I normally drink. I'll be back on my routine tomorrow.

Not that I can remember. I like lipton's diet green tea. Also minute maid has several products that are 15cals/8oz serving. They are awesome. There is also a diet half lemonade/half green tea by arnold palmer that's good.

If you don't dump or get sick from it, how do u stop yourself from falling back into the habit of wanting it all the time? Good point of making new healthy alternative - low sugar , less carbs etc!! I love this group. :).

Wow.. sorry if you misunderstood what i was trying to say...

Let me rephrase.. "I" would never dare to eat any of that. If your body can take it, great! Mines can't.

Just clarifying ;)

Weekend indulgent... It's so hot outside omg... We took our 2 year to a farm and enjoyed the day minus the sun burn!

After my hubby and daughter enjoyed their ice cream I went to a shaved ice place near home they blend natural fruit nothing extra (sugars) I had a kid size and got banana & strawberry.... Heaven! Haven't had one since before surgery. Ice & fruit! Went down cold and completely satisfying!

But next weekend its a better holiday for me! It's my birthday! No cake but Im planning on making myself that watermelon "cake" I've seen posted here :)

That's a problem for me... I don't dump and have only thrown up from not chewing it enough. I have to follow the rules, I'm afraid!

I keep in my mind that I haven't dumped and don't want to. Lol. Plus my friends and family are very supportive. For example, my team at work usually has dinners on Fridays. They always make sure they have something I can eat. Some days are harder than others, but I keep my goal of no dumping in my mind.

      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.
