Question guys' date=' we are 3 months out now. I'm never really hungry but I still find myself at night snacking!! Nothing like I did before but I do find myself eating not so good for us stuff. Do any of you have this problem and what do you do for it? Like I said, I'm not really hungry but I don't want this to become a habit! I've lost 63 lbs now and I certainly want to keep losing and defiantly do not want to be someone that regains!![/quote']

Just pick something healthy too snack on. I snack on beef Jerky and turkey sausage. It helps.

Sounds like your sugar may be a little low at night (it drops for some people---including myself!). Down the Water and allow yourself a fruit snack. While you may "crave" the not-good-stuff, I'll bet the fruit snack will pick your sugar up a bit and satisfy your cravings. ie little cup of peaches, mandarins, or pears (packed in own fruit juice) topped with cottage cheese and honey (if desired)

      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. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
