OH Hang in there!! It is SOOO hard. I know. I have figured out thru this process I just can't have carbs. I love them so but as soon as I eat them, the scale shoots up. You can do this! We are here for you. Maybe start weaning yourself off of them? Antoher words eat less and less of the bakery items each day? I had to do this with chocolate.< /p>

I have found tracking what I eat helps the most. You might want to try my fitness pal and truly log in every bite you take... When you see how many calories are in those bakery items you might be less likely to eat them... Hang in there

It was a little harsh this comment but I must agree. We can't have major surgery & go back to old habits. They have nice low fat treats or once a month you can treat your self but if you keep going back to the bakery section your gonna gain more weight & regret it. Control your self. Everything in moderation is great. Just don't over do it. Sometimes I get a sweet tooth. I have 1 scoop ice cream & I'm done I then drink Water. If I keep on I know I will gain. I haven't gain yet don't plan to but it's hard I know but try to control it.

Not meant to be harsh. Sorry just don't want us to fail. Sometimes in certain situations were just setting ourselves up.

        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
