Kiesesassy when can we eat nuts. I feel like if I could chew up some pistachios really really well that would taste so good? I am almost five weeks out. I haven't tried anything like bread or crackers and don't plan too. But I would love some nuts.

I had some cashews the other day. I chewed them to mush (2 1/2 weeks post op) and they were delicious! I could only eat a few, but Yum!

Once and a while I will have a few almonds chewed to nothing. They are good for a quick snack at work I I can't stop. I was released to regular food at 8 weeks including salads. Not going there yet don't have room after the Protein. I will have a few crackers as well with a baby bel or lunch meat. I have mixed feelings about tuna right now. I need to try the low fat/ff mayo.< /p>

I am not really worried about the calories as I maybe eat 1 tablespoon in a week.

I have only been able to tolerate shredded chicken, shrimp and tuna so far and I am 3 months out. I crave salads and love a good 1/4 of a shredded chicken enchilada. I have a hard time getting down a chicken soft taco fresco at Taco Bell I eat more of the pintos and cheese cup and leave more than half of the taco.

I am having a stall currently I believe due to the fact that I started taking the pill again and my body is going a little haywire from it. I am still losing a lot of hair despite the fact I get in 100 grams of Protein a day and 10,000 mcg of Biotin daily as well. I'm getting a little frustrated with the stall and Hair loss. Any suggestions?

Talked to my Nut she said thr is no science behind Biotin regarding if it actually helps :( and it just happens, also my stepdaughter has lost about 100 lbs on her own and her hair has thinned alot!!

As far as Salads she said that we can at 2 month but to get Roman or Spinach cuz they r softer and use Olive Oil or Balsamic as a dressing No cream base to heavy, (just to get 1 or 2 leaves add a lil dressing and see how it makes you feel)

Protein Drinks you can add berries to the drinks just Blend them up For a change.

        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.

      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
