What ya eating tonight?



Recommended Posts

You guys crack me up. Sorry' date=' I was crazy busy at work today and just saw this. If you're grilling the tilapia, try doing a creole seasoning and a lemon garlic remoulade. Or you could do a lemon pepper seasoning and make a veggie tartar sauce. Greek yogurt, lemon juice, salt, pepper, grated carrot, chopped cucumber, red pepper and a little bit of pickle.

I did tilapia tonight too. Seasoned with salt and pepper. Topped with a tablespoon of garlic aioli and a teaspoon of Parmesan, baked at 350 for about 12 minutes. Yum.[/quote']

Lisa I did the lemon pepper seasonings with veggie

Tartar sauce. Who would've thought. I also sauteed brussel sprouts with garlic and crushed red pepper.

It's awesome!!!! I was so bored without fruits or veggies, just the little crunch has made it all better :). Plus I really don't think we are designed to live on Protein alone....there's so much good stuff fruits and veggies give us :). I feel normal!!!

I know Tomato Soup counts as a liquid, can I drink it between meals out of a cup? Or is that considered snacking between meals?

My surgeon told me 3 meals and two Snacks a day, the rest of the day Water. He says it helps decrease stress on our digestive system. Also helps metabolism. I went from 440lbs to 165lbs in 9mo I chose to go up to 195lbs cause I was crackhead skinny lol. So no, give your tummy a break between meals :0)

        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
